SUMMARY:Meet the Expert Day: 1-on-1 sessions
DESCRIPTION:A full day of focused\, 1-on-1 conversations between KR members and hand-picked experts. Just you\, an expert\, and 20-30 minutes to dig into the questions that matter most for your business right now. Whether you’re figuring out how to protect your brand\, get your labels right\, or take the next financial step\, this is your chance to get the right answers. \nThe schedule:12:00 – 13:00 Networking lunch13:00 – 17:00 1-on-1 sessions 17:00 – 18:00 Drinks & networking \nWe’re covering multiple topics that every food startup runs into sooner or later.  \nBrand Protection with Kilburn & StrodeYour brand is your company’s most valuable asset. It is much more than just a design or a logo. But did you know that without a valid trademark registration you can’t claim a right to your brand name or logo? That makes solid brand protection in the countries where you produce and/or sell your products essential. On the other hand\, brand protection in an area that is too wide leads to unnecessary risks and may even result in you losing your rights. You’ll meet Marit Blom\, Trademark Attorney at Kilburn & Strode.   \n\n\n\n\n\nExample questions:– What do I need to consider when choosing my brand name and logo?– Is my brand safe once I get a trademark registration?– How does it work if I want to export to other countries? \n*** \nLoans via QreditsGrowth takes money. Qredits supports small businesses with accessible loans and coaching. Qredits is a business partner for starting and experienced entrepreneurs in small and medium-sized businesses. They are a credit provider\, but also a coach and trainer: Their team of experts stands by you\, thinks along with you and offers opportunities.

Ariane van Mancius from Now New Next joins us to take an honest look at your branding and packaging. Now New Next is a branding and design studio that helps food brands show up with clarity and intention. Ariane joins us to take an honest look at your branding and packaging. Does it attract the right audience? Does it reflect what you want to stand for? And could it be more sustainable?  \nExample questions:– Does my packaging appeal to the right target group?– How can I make my packaging more sustainable? \n*** \nRetail Insights with Laura van der VeldenGetting your product onto a retailer’s shelf is one thing\, staying there is another. Laura van der Velden is a category strategist with over ten years of experience in retail\, gained at the buyer’s side of Albert Heijn and Jumbo. Now she helps better-for-you food brands make that same step but from the other side of the table. She advises at the moments that matter most: from your first retail conversations to building a solid position on the shelf. Think translating your brand story into retail arguments\, shelf logic\, and price positioning. Get her take on shelf positioning\, pricing\, and what a buyer really looks at before saying yes. \nExample questions:– Is my price positioning right for the retail channel I’m targeting?– What do I need to have ready before my first meeting with a retailer? \n*** \nHow it works When you sign up\, you’ll indicate which expert sessions interest you and submit a concrete question in advance. This helps us make the most of every slot and ensures the expert is prepared for your specific situation. \nBased on all registrations\, we’ll build a personalised schedule for you. Please note: spots are limited and we can’t guarantee a place with every expert\, but we’ll do our best to put together a day that’s genuinely useful for everyone. \nSign up via the registration form below. You’ll receive your personal planning ahead of the event. \nRegistration for this session closes on May 5.
