For owners
You own the brand. Third Wave brings founders, operators and creative specialists together to build, grow and transform physical and consumer product brands.
What ownership feels like without an ops bench
- You hold brands that should perform, but the operating team inside is thin, stretched or missing.
- AI hype makes a leaner model easy to picture; management cannot staff the work to get there.
- You need people who can work on catalogue, margins, fulfilment and channels alongside your team.
- You want peers who own or oversee product brands, and a governed path to operating help when a brand needs it.
Peers for judgment. Bench for execution.
Third Wave Network connects owners with peers who understand the economics of physical and consumer product brands. When a decision needs additional capacity, members can request help from the Operating Bench.
- House Operating Bench operators cover commercial, supply chain, e-commerce and product, available ad hoc when members request it.
- Peer rooms stay curated and stage-matched so ownership conversations stay useful, not open networking.
- This is operating capacity for owned brands. It is not a capital or deal pathway.
Company membership sized to the asset you own
Company membership is priced by annual turnover at £250, £350 or £450/month plus VAT. The bands help match owners with peers running businesses at a similar scale. Members can also request Operating Bench introductions. Scope, eligibility and service terms are agreed separately.
The Network is for operating decisions, not buying, selling or funding companies. Peer rooms prohibit selling, and Bench Operators never receive member contact details.
