Beauty funding and M&A have declined year-over-year amid economic concerns, slowing the funding of emerging beauty endeavors. Take the founding of Beach House Ventures for example. The company was recently launched with the sole purpose to "address the general decline in beauty fundraising in recent quarters, related to everything from interest rate hikes to recessionary fears."
Still, amid the slump, a number of high-performance brands are attracting investor buy-in. How?
Next month, during the 4-day Beauty Accelerate Virtual, OurX CEO Meg Maupin and Oliver Zak, cofounder, Mad Rabbit, will share intel in the session, "Investment-worthy Beauty," describing what's making investors optimistic and keys to brand success; from distribution to product innovation to marketing and consumer engagement and beyond.
Attendees will come away with new insights to fuel business planning, marketing and product development.>>>REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR LIVE/ON-DEMAND ACCESS.<<<
