Media & Industry Social

Real Conversations. Real Connections. Real Industry. Media &amp; Industry Day is social networking the way it was meant to be. Not heads down scrolling on your phone, but a drink in your hand, a good story, a warm handshake, and a connection that actually means something, whether it turns into a friendship or a business relationship. This is your chance to sit down and talk with the founders behind 20+ veteran-owned beverage brands. No formal pitch meetings, no scripts, just real conversations with the people who built these companies from the ground up. Whether you&#39;re a podcast host looking for your next great interview, a content creator capturing video and photos, or a supplier, vendor, or service provider who helps beverage brands grow (marketing, can sales, manufacturing, distribution, retail sales, label making, tasting and sampling, or anything else that moves a brand forward) this is your chance to get in the room with the people who make the buying decisions. Media &amp; Industry Day is still built around our 20+ beverage brands, but it&#39;s also a business networking event. We&#39;ve invited business leaders from a diverse range of industries to be part of this, to connect, share, and enjoy the moment alongside the founders and the CRAFT team. Our focus stays on the adult beverage industry and CRAFT&#39;s mission, and we&#39;re grateful to everyone showing up to support it.
