This year’s selected participants include Batch Balanced, Cabu Latte, Engineered Nutrition, Goldholly, and Underdog. These brands will benefit from the same high-level strategic guidance typically reserved for established companies, focusing on balancing purpose-driven missions with scalable performance.
