Inc42's D2C Retreat Gathers India's Consumer Brand Founders
Inc42 hosted a three-day D2C Retreat at Raffles Udaipur, India. The event convened over 70 founders from the consumer brand sector for discussions on industry challenges.

Indian media company Inc42 organized its third D2C Retreat from September 17-19 at Raffles Udaipur. The event brought together more than 70 founders from India's direct-to-consumer (D2C) and retail ecosystem.
The retreat aimed to provide founders with dedicated time and a trusted environment to engage in candid conversations about scaling their businesses. Topics explored included growth strategies, liquidity, and the evolving role of the founder.
Inc42 stated the D2C Retreat is built on the premise that scaling founders need peer understanding for complex decisions, moving beyond typical conference formats. The event sought to foster informal connections and discussions away from scheduled sessions.
The event was supported by partners including Shadowfax and IDFC FIRST Bank. Inc42 expressed gratitude to all participants and partners for contributing to the success of the gathering, which focused on facilitating meaningful dialogue within India's D2C landscape.
