Beanstalk

Beanstalk operates on a completely different model than traditional retail conferences. Rather than generic talks, this DTC-focused summit facilitates 10,000+ curated one-on-one meetings between brand leaders, distributors, co-packers, investors, and strategic partners. Held annually in Brooklyn each September, Beanstalk brings together founders and senior executives across food, personal care, apparel, home goods, and more—specifically for relationship-building. If you're navigating a scaling inflection point, exploring new distribution channels, or thinking about partnerships that could unlock your next growth phase, Beanstalk puts you directly in front of the right people. This is where actual business gets done, not where you sit through presentation slides.
