Beauty trade show Unfiltered Experience has partnered with Target’s brand incubator Target Accelerators to give fledgling brands visibility to industry decision makers. As a sponsor of Unfiltered Experience Online Rising Stars program, Target Accelerators will sponsor up to 20 companies to participate in the trade show’s three-part series virtual event. It will also provide one-on-one mentor meetings with various Target Accelerators Program Managers, social media influencers and experts. Rising Star applicants will also be considered for the upcoming 2021 Target Takeoff Beauty cohort. Applications for this cohort will open next month. Emerging BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) and female founders are encouraged to apply for the Rising Stars program with Unfiltered Experience Online. Interested founders should enroll online at unfilteredexperience.com/target on Monday, Oct. 5, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.  PST.
