  • Packaging decisions don’t stop at the package. They ripple across your entire value chain.⁠
⁠
Join us for the September Naturally Colorado Operations Forum, Packaging Decisions That Strengthen—or Break—Your Value Chain, for a practical conversation on how packaging choices impact cost, manufacturing, suppliers, inventory, regulatory compliance, sustainability, and ultimately your ability to scale.⁠
⁠
Featuring David Nardone, a multidisciplinary creative with more than 15 years of experience in creative and design strategy, the session will dig into the operational realities behind materials, design, packaging specifications, supplier and co-man alignment, MOQs, and consumer-facing claims.⁠
⁠
This is a hands-on, solutions-oriented conversation for operations leaders, supply chain professionals, founders, and industry partners looking to build packaging systems that work across the entire business—not just on shelf.⁠

  • What does sustainable packaging actually mean to shoppers, and what does that mean when your brand hits the shelf?⁠
⁠
Join us for The Shelf Test: Consumer Data on Packaging, and What Buyers Do With It, a virtual conversation exploring what consumer research really tells us about sustainable packaging and how those expectations are showing up in retail.⁠
⁠
Featuring Saloni Doshi, Sustainability Lead at EcoEnclose; Doug Helbig, Chief Growth Officer at Green Spoon Sales; and Jim Lamancusa, former CEO of Pet Sustainability Coalition, the session will dig into how sustainability influences purchasing behavior, the questions brands may face during category reviews, and where evolving EPR regulations are changing the packaging conversation altogether.⁠
⁠
With sustainability-marketed products accounting for 25% of the CPG market but driving 45% of market growth from 2013–2025, retailers are taking note.⁠
⁠
Tuesday, September 15⁠
11:00 AM–12:00 PM MT⁠
Virtual via Zoom⁠
Free and open to all⁠

  • As your business grows, your role as CEO has to grow with it.⁠
⁠
Join us for the next Naturally Colorado Executive Forum, Leading What’s Next: How the CEO Role Evolves as Your Business Grows, for a candid roundtable discussion about leadership through growth and complexity.⁠
⁠
Featuring Jill Simonds, Founder & CEO of Savvy, we’ll explore the questions growing leaders inevitably face: What does your business need from you now? What should you continue to own, and what is it time to hand off? When is it time to develop your existing team or bring in new leadership?⁠
⁠
Together, CEOs will share how they’re navigating growth, margins, culture, team building, and the evolving demands of leadership.⁠
⁠
Thursday, September 17⁠
4:00–5:30 PM MT⁠
Horizon Organic Dairy | Broomfield, CO⁠
⁠
Come ready for an open conversation, practical perspectives, and the opportunity to learn alongside fellow leaders navigating what comes next.⁠

  • Retail strategy looks a lot different when you’re standing in the aisle.⁠
Last Friday, our Naturally Colorado Retail Launch Lab founders hit the road for a hands-on Retail Market Tour led by Kate Cash, Founder + CEO of Spark Strategic.⁠
⁠
We visited Leevers Locavore, King Soopers, Sprouts Farmers Market and Natural Grocers, looking at retail through a much more strategic lens.⁠
⁠
The goal wasn’t just to walk stores. It was to give founders real-world insights they can immediately apply to their own brands and retail strategy.⁠
⁠
A huge thank you to Kate for leading the group and challenging our founders to look at the shelf differently.⁠
⁠
This is exactly what we want the Retail Launch Lab to be: practical, hands-on learning that helps Colorado brands get stronger and smarter as they grow.⁠
