P&G Ventures is bringing the Innovation Challenge back to #CES2021 to provide entrepreneurs with a platform to showcase their innovations.
Leigh Radford, Senior Vice President and General Manager, P&G Ventures said “Every year, CES sets the stage for new innovations and, as a result, has always been a great place for P&G Ventures to find new potential partners”.
We were mightily impressed with what they brought to #CES2020 earlier this year so you may know that P&G Ventures is the early-stage startup studio within P&G and it is now accepting submissions for its next virtual pitch competition. The Procter & Gamble Company will make its virtual return to #CES2021 alongside other top innovators from around the world to showcase how it’s combining deep consumer understanding and cutting-edge technologies to develop connected, innovative products and services that transform everyday consumer experiences.
P&G Ventures partners with entrepreneurs, inventors, and startups to discover and create consumer products, brands, and businesses that solve people’s needs in categories new to P&G. Each P&G Ventures partnership is unique, providing funding and access to P&G’s experts, resources, and capabilities to help partners find their best customers, prove their technology, and create their brand.
The winner will be selected by a panel of P&G executives including Leigh Radford, Vice President and General Manager at P&G Ventures, Julie Setser, Vice President of R&D at P&G Ventures, Kristina Rogers, Global Consumer Industries Leader at EY, and Courtney Reum, Co-founder of M13.
