It’s been a year of reckoning for once-prominent direct-to-consumer startups, with Everlane selling to Shein and Allbirds pivoting to become an AI company. But it’s never been more important for brands to build a direct relationship with consumers, especially as artificial intelligence threatens to erode consumer trust. In turn, DTC startups aren’t dead — they’re just evolving.
Join us virtually on August 12 at 1 pm ET for a candid town hall discussion between brand executives, investors, analysts and consultants – led by Modern Retail and Glossy’s editorial staff – to talk about current challenges and opportunities brands that sell direct-to-consumer face. The discussion topics will include:
- Why the bottom is falling out for so many prominent DTC startups this year.
- What types of DTC startups are succeeding and attracting funding right now.
- What role the DTC channel should play in a modern distribution strategy.
