Becoming Beanstalk.
After 2 years under the Commerce Summit name, the event rebrands as Beanstalk and aims to bring together 1,000+ leaders across the consumer ecosystem together in New York in 2025.
Commerce Summit.
After much thought and consideration, the first iteration of Beanstalk debuts in 2023 as Commerce Summit in Partnership with NBCUniversal. The event brings together 200+ of the leading Founders and Investors in the consumer ecosystem.
Our Founding Partner.
Fast forward to 2019, and our Founding Partners at NBCUniversal took this concept and helped grow it into a series of community dinners that have now surpassed 300+ gatherings across the world in cities like London, Chicago, New York, Mexico City, San Francisco, Cannes, Los Angeles and Barcelona.
Where it all started.
Beanstalk’s origins traceback to a rented board room in a Toronto Regus (WeWork before WeWork was cool) shared office space, where the Founders of Beanstalk hosted their first ever “Food for Thought” lunch with some friends, board members and investors as a way to bring smart people together.
