“Being part of FOMENT has opened doors to the South Australian wine industry much faster than we could have done ourselves. The entire process from start to finish has been seamless and easy as a participating company. (We) changed from all angles, on everything from our business model to how we think about scale. The facilitators, advisory board and program mentors were exceptional and I imagine, inaccessible without FOMENT.”
