FOR BRANDS & PARTNERS

Bringing the future into the room.

Name: Beyond Now LA
Location: UCLA

Beyond Now Summit puts ambitious students face-to-face with the founders, athletes, creators, and leaders defining the industries they want to enter. Our partners make that possible by bringing their voice, their people, and their generosity into the experience.

get involved Our Mission

The Mission

Beyond Now exists to close the distance between students and the people they want to become. Real conversations, in real rooms, with the people actually shaping what comes next.

Fluffy white cloud with soft edges on a transparent background.

OUR APPROACH

Real people. Real conversations. Real impact.

Today's students learn most of what they know about industries from short-form video and second-hand stories. The day they meet a founder, an athlete, or an operator in person changes how they see what's possible for them.

Beyond Now is designed to be that day. Partners help us deliver it with depth and authenticity.

For Students

An honest look at what comes next Students hear from people actually doing the work. They ask real questions and get real answers. Not a polished panel, a real conversation. The kind of access most students never get.

For Partners

A meaningful way to give back Your founders, leaders, and creators get to do something most of them genuinely want to do: spend a day inspiring the next generation, on a stage built around them and their story.

For The Future

The seeds get planted here Beyond Now alumni go on to start companies, lead teams, and join the brands they met that day. The relationships and ideas built here last well beyond the summit.

BUILT ON SUMMER DISCOVERY

A community 60 years in the making.

Beyond Now is designed to be that day. Partners help us deliver it with depth and authenticity.

WAYS TO COLLABORATE

Bring your people, ideas, and expertise into the room.

Every Beyond Now partnership is co-designed. The shape it takes depends on what you have to offer and what students would benefit most from. The signature thread across every collaboration: putting your founders, creators, and operators in genuine conversation with our students.

Speakers, Creators & Real Conversations

SIGNATURE

The heart of every partnership. We pair your founders, creators, athletes, or executives with the right student audience for an honest, on-stage conversation. A keynote, a fireside, a live demo, a hands-on workshop. Designed to land authentically with students, never as a branded ad break.

Workshops & Mentorship

Smaller-group sessions where your team leads students through hands-on learning tied to your area of expertise. The kind of access most students never get.

Content & Storytelling

Capture genuine moments at the event with our attending creators. The content lives long past the day on their channels, ours, and yours.

Pathways & Opportunities

Open doors for the next generation: internships, fellowships, mentorship programs, and early-career opportunities your team would love to fill with students who showed up.

Hands-On Brand Experiences

Lounges, demo spaces, exhibit areas, and meet & greets, designed to be genuinely useful and engaging for students, not commercial real estate.

Founding & Presenting Partners

Anchor a full event as a Presenting Partner. Recognition across every touchpoint, before, during, and after, alongside the deepest level of co-design with our team.

Beyond the Summit

Programming that lives across Summer Discovery's full network: classroom modules, alumni events, social content with our speaker roster, and ongoing creator and mentor partnerships seeded at the event. A relationship, not a transaction.

Open the door for students who would benefit most.

Beyond Now has launched a dedicated scholarship program to bring exceptional students into the room who otherwise wouldn't have access. Donors and partner brands fund tuition, travel, and full summit attendance for students selected through our partner network.

For partners who want to lead with mission and impact, the scholarship track is the most meaningful way to be part of Beyond Now.

Three ways to give back.

From founding a multi-year named fund to sponsoring a single student, there's a scholarship track that fits every partner's commitment to the mission. Each one builds the foundation our students walk through the door on.

FOUNDING DONOR

Named Scholarship Fund

Multi-year named fund supporting a cohort each year. Recognition across event materials, dedicated involvement, and annual impact reporting.

FOUNDING DONOR

Cohort Sponsor

Fund a cohort of students attending Beyond Now and the broader Summer Discovery program. Direct connection with the students you support.

SUPPORTER

Individual Scholarships

Sponsor individual students attending the summit. The most direct way to make Beyond Now accessible for students who would benefit most.
