Target Takeoff 2020
Target Takeoff is an opportunity to deepen your retail know-how without having to make the 3–4-month commitment of a traditional accelerator. With both virtual and face-to-face workshops and mentoring, you’ll work on launching and scaling to help your brand accelerate its market readiness.
In the last few years, Takeoff has welcomed a number of cohorts built around a particular industry or customer.
Got a great product or brand that’s still in its infancy? Get ready for a growth spurt. This cohort is looking for ideas to help both babies and parents — from innovative gear to nutritional solutions, and everything in between.
How far can the boundaries of the retail industry be pushed?
The retail industry is undergoing a revolution. Boundaries are being pushed, conventions defied and change instigated. And who is driving this thoughtful upheaval? Bold, brilliant entrepreneurs like you. You’re helping to reshape the retail business and Target wants to help you do it.
Target believes in your game-changing ideas and believes in you. With its network of mentors, it’ll help you do more, faster than you ever thought possible. And together, you’ll shape the future of retail.
