On April 25th, five finalists will go head-to-head in this shark-tank-style live showing of Southern California's most promising group of natural products brands.

Naturally San Diego's in-person Pitch Slam will give natural products entrepreneurs the stage to pitch their up-and-coming companies to a panel of experts and audience members, ultimately winning a suite of prizes from our local San Diego community to help propel their industry growth!

Your Pitch Slam ticket includes:

• Watch the live-shark-tank-style competition where brands will go head-to-head in front of a panel of industry-expert judges
• Weigh in with your vote for People's Choice award
• Network in-person with more than 350+ of the natural-products community's best and brightest
• Enjoy hosted drinks, dessert and samples from booths
• A swag bag of NDS Sponsor product and coupons (value of $50+)

As with everything else, Inflation has increased our event production costs. In trying to keep the ticket cost down and also decrease the amount of food waste, we have decided to charge extra ($15) for the food truck entree. This charge is only for the entree. An open bar, samples, dessert and the swag bag are included with your ticket.

Event sponsorships and booths are available. Contact president@naturallysandiego.org for details.
