FounderMade

A New Chapter for FounderMade ✨ For nearly a decade, FounderMade has served as a vibrant platform for innovation, connection, and discovery. What began as a simple idea grew into a thriving community of founders, investors, and industry leaders—all united by a shared vision to shape the future of consumer brands 🚀. Now, FounderMade is entering a new chapter as we sunset the FounderMade brand this April and transition into the broader Informa portfolio—home to a dynamic network of industry-leading events and platforms that continue to fuel the growth of emerging brands 🌐. Through our events and this incredible community, we’ve embarked on a journey powered by passion, creativity, and an unwavering belief in the founders and brands shaping the future 💡. To every entrepreneur who trusted us, every partner who showed up, and every teammate who gave their heart to this mission: thank you ❤️. With your support, we built more than events—we built a community. We sparked conversations 💬, fostered partnerships 🤝, and watched countless ideas grow into category-defining brands 🌱. That energy doesn’t disappear. While the FounderMade brand will no longer continue independently, Informa’s extensive network offers new opportunities to grow, connect, and shine 💼✨. Here are a few upcoming Informa events that may align with your business goals: 🔹 Beauty: Cosmoprof North America 🔹 Health & Nutrition: Newtopia Now Thank you again to our amazing community 🙏.
