What you likely need

You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in rooms with strategic equity investors who can open distribution channels for Musely's DTC skincare model, and with operators who've scaled consumer health brands past the $100M revenue mark. Roundtables focused on formalizing angel activity into a named syndicate or micro-fund would also be high-signal, given your GSR Ventures track record and 15+ years of deal experience.
