Mondelēz International’s SnackFutures Opens Applications for CoLab 2023 Start-Up Engagement Program
20 Setembro 2022 - 10:05AM
SnackFutures, the Mondelēz International, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDLZ)
innovation and venture hub, today opened applications for CoLab
2023. This is the third year of the start-up engagement program
which was created to bring ‘big and small’ together to drive mutual
growth.
While all participants must fit within the SnackFutures ethos of
being good for people, kind to the planet and deliciously fun, the
focus for the 2023 class is DISRUPTIVELY DELICIOUS. The team is
looking for brands that are pushing the boundaries of what’s
possible in making a snack delicious - from flavors, to experience,
to sustainability to packaging - as well as grabbing the attention
of retailers and getting consumers coming back for more.
Brigette Wolf, VP and Global Head of SnackFutures, says CoLab is
working just as it was intended – to provide emerging brands with
the tools, resources and technologies they would otherwise not have
access to, and introduce the global snacking leader to new
insights, capability and prospective investments.
“To be launching a third class of CoLab demonstrates Mondelēz
International’s commitment to thinking and behaving as a
consumer-centric, future forward leader in snacking,” says Wolf.
“The start-ups that participate in this program tell us they are
blown away by the access and attention they get from our experts
and ecosystem; and our leaders and employees are inspired by the
drive and discipline of these entrepreneurs.”
The 12-week program includes in-person workshops, hands-on
experiences and virtual curriculum sessions, along with 1:1
mentorship, access to Mondelēz International experts and its
partners across the globe.
Applications for the CoLab 2023 program are open now through
December 2022. The program begins in April of 2023. To apply,
start-ups must be based in the U.S., generating at least $1M in
revenue, have high growth potential, align with the Mondelēz
International innovation priorities and can benefit from working
with the company. For more information and to apply to the CoLab
program, visit www.snackfutures.com.
