December 6-8, 2026 • Los Angeles, CA
You know what BevNET Live can do. Now build on what you started.
Each BevNET Live builds on the last. The relationships get warmer, the conversations start further along, and a new mix of founders, buyers, investors, and operators gives you more people to meet and more opportunities to pursue.
Build on what worked. Come back for what’s changed.
Your last BevNET Live gave you relationships, perspective, and an understanding of how the event works. This time, you know what deserves your attention, who you want to meet, and where to focus your time.
A new mix of attendees, speakers, editorial topics, sampling opportunities, and 1:1 hosts creates conversations you couldn’t have last time. Your business has changed too, bringing new questions, goals, and challenges.
Put what you learned last time to work with the new people, questions, and opportunities shaping what comes next for beverage in 2027 and beyond.
A new attendee mix every time.
New connections. Stronger relationships.
Each BevNET Live brings first-time founders, new products, and fresh industry perspectives alongside the relationships you’ve already built. Returning lets you expand your network while moving existing conversations further along.

Nearly 250 brand attendees joined us in New York.
It was one of the strongest summer turnouts in BevNET Live history. Los Angeles brings a different mix of buyers, investors, operators, and industry partners from across the West Coast and beyond.
1:1 Meetings
1:1 meetings create focused time with participating buyers, investors, operators, and other industry leaders. This time, arrive with a clearer sense of who you want to meet and what you want from the conversation.
Whether you participated before or not, use the opportunity to sharpen your pitch, make focused requests, and pursue the connections most relevant to your goals.
Hosts review and approve requests individually, and calendars fill quickly. Register early to begin requesting meetings sooner.
2027 brings a new set of decisions
Sessions and speakers
New founders, operators, buyers, and investors take on what is changing now — where capital is moving, what retailers will prioritize next, and which categories are gaining ground.
You will hear those conversations with another year of experience behind you, giving you sharper questions, stronger context, and a clearer sense of what the answers mean for your business.
Sampling
Put your product in front of decision makers.
You’ve seen what makes sampling stand out at BevNET Live. Build on that with a sharper setup, stronger product story, and more meaningful interactions.
Reach new attendees and those who can see how far your brand has come. Whether you’re sampling for the first time or bringing something new,

New Beverage Showdown
See the next wave take the stage.
Every New Beverage Showdown brings a new lineup of emerging brands before buyers, investors, distributors, founders, and press. Finalists pitch live and receive real-time feedback from an expert panel.
Each competition offers an early look at the founders, products, and categories that could shape what comes next. This time, you’ll watch with more experience - and a sharper eye for which pitches land and which brands have staying power.
A Few Past Participants
Bringing someone new from your team to BevNET Live?
Beverage School gives startup and early-stage teams a tactical foundation in retailer conversations, distribution, margins, and the mechanics of building a beverage brand. It is a strong way to introduce a teammate to the event while giving each of you the flexibility to focus on the sessions, conversations, and opportunities most relevant to your goals.
What Returning Attendees Say
There’s a level of familiarity and likability you can build with people if you attend multiple events. I’ve had different experiences where another attendee and I simply get introduced, have a great chat, and naturally check in with each other at each event. These conversations help you improve your business incrementally.
