Ignite your entrepreneurial creativity with beepurple’s first founder story panel of 2021

beepurple founder stories series
wed 10 Feb 5.30-7.30:

PANDEMIC PROOF START-UPS

To kick off the new season, we have invited three Sussex-based entrepreneurs from the food and drink industry who have all had to redefine their businesses and pivot in the face of the pandemic. They will share their entrepreneurial stories and hard earned tips in this dynamic panel session.

You will hear from resilient Founder and Managing Director of Kathy Caton. Kathy will share her story on how she has led the transformation of Brighton Gin from being a small, independent gin distillery mainly focused on wholesale, to one which has had to innovate new products and business models for the consumer market.

Also with us will be Chloe Edwards of a vibrant home-based food business, who has found creative and sustainable ways to build a growing local customer base for her cooking. She runs cookery courses, makes bespoke spice mixes and chutneys and offers a home delivery service - and more. She has absolutely nailed Instagram.

Our third founder is Elisa Furci of who has created a focaccia and coffee house making and selling amazing and authentic food. She also makes fresh homemade pasta and sauces to take home and cook for supper.

Once we have heard from all three, fearless founders, there will be a chance for you to ask questions, so that you can learn more about their entrepreneurial journeys and apply those lessons to your own ventures.

Wherever you are working from, you can join us for free, online via Zoom and share experiences with your peer community.

This particular event is open to University of Brighton students and alumni as well as Sussex-based local businesses.
