Description

If you’re a UK consumer goods brand looking to break into Australia or New Zealand markets, this masterclass will help you improve export readiness and enter new markets with greater confidence. Delivered by Stickybeak - a fast, cost-effective global consumer testing platform - the session will show how brands across beauty, apparel, homewares and food & drink are using rapid feedback to optimise packaging, messaging, and product claims ahead of launch.
