​What does it take to launch a restaurant that people can’t stop talking about?

​Join Memphis tastemakers Cole Jeanes, Harrison Downing, and Schuyler O’Brien, the creative minds behind Kinfolk, Hard Times Deli, Secret Smash Society, and the Etowah Collective, for a no-fluff mini masterclass on turning big ideas into successful food concepts.

​They’ll walk us through their creative process from concept design and business modeling to menu development, team building, sales strategy, and securing investors. This session is packed with real world insight and creative energy that’s fueled some of the most talked-about food spots in the city.

​Enjoy light bites and come ready for a deep dive discussion and Q&A with three founders who’ve done it, scaled it, and stayed inspired while doing it.
