Every way to participate in Beanstalk 2026 — from full partnership packages and speaking opportunities to standalone dinners, boardrooms, lunches, experiences and branding. Built around high-density, face-to-face access to the most senior room in commerce.
Beanstalk is the largest gathering of executives of Disruptor Brands in North America.
Unlike other conferences focused on content and listening to people on stage, 90% of the time spent at Beanstalk is in 1:1 or small-group, peer-led discussions — maximizing the opportunities for individuals to connect, network and learn from one another.
It's an invite-only conference that admits only C-Suite or equivalent Heads of Functions and Departments, so only decision makers attend — ensuring everyone you meet is someone you should get to know.
Beanstalk is organized into four tracks, so your program reaches exactly the right room:
Beanstalk's invite-only approach means an unusually senior, brand-heavy room. Compared to other events in 2025, Beanstalk had 90%+ of attendees at VP and above — upwards of 2× the next leading conference.
Below are examples of the types of Guests of Honor you can expect at Beanstalk. The official Guest of Honor selection process will commence in August.

For the formats with meeting space: 2 boardroom discussions (one Tuesday, one Wednesday) and 1 Beanstalk ticket for your CEO or a member of your leadership. The space includes tables, chairs for 14 or 26 guests, and basic signage.
Guests of Honor are selected based on a combination of factors — chiefly who is credible and compelling enough to make the discussion great for participants. You can start to prioritize Guests of Honor 12 weeks prior to Beanstalk, and we lock yours down about 4 weeks prior. Last-minute substitutions can happen the week prior due to illness or urgent conflicts; we use your alternate selections as back-ups.
Our content team generates a set of topics covered on the first and second day. We work with you to identify the topic(s) most fitting for your business — thoughtful of the industry environment and broad enough to attract a strong group. You select the topic(s) around 3 weeks prior to Beanstalk.
Attendees are curated based on brands you deem interested or very interested in the Meetups selection process. Final attendees are determined within 7 days of Beanstalk to reflect the latest attendee list.
Each boardroom discussion is facilitated by a moderator. If we're comfortable, your CEO or number-two executive can moderate; otherwise we assign a leading figure knowledgeable about the topic. We lock down your moderator approximately 4 weeks prior to Beanstalk.
You can use the space to host 1:1s or smaller group meetings, decorate it with signage and branding, and add furniture. Availability: September 15 from 9:30am to 4:30pm, and September 16 from 9:30am to 1:30pm.
Power Lunches take place over lunch on September 15 (12:15pm–1:05pm), where you lead a discussion with 7 to 9 other executives on professional topics (for example, how they're implementing AI in their business) or personal ones (how to be a great parent, how to manage your own performance).
Power Lunches take place over lunch on September 15, 2026, from 12:15pm to 1:05pm at Beanstalk.

The cost to sponsor each Power Lunch is $2,450. (A Power Lunch is also included with a Boardroom Discussion / Lounge sponsorship.)
Activities could include professional sessions like private fitness classes — CrossFit, [solidcore] or Y7 Yoga — or experiences like Archery, Rock Climbing, Lawn Bowling or an Escape Room, all the way up to large private classes like Barry's Bootcamp and SoulCycle. You'll be introduced to each guest prior to the event, and matched to the group based on your 1:1 meeting selections.
