Access changes everything.
Beyond Now puts high school students face to face with founders, creators, athletes and executives: on stage, inside their offices and at the venues that shape their industries.
Why we exist
The students we meet are already building things: channels, clubs, small businesses and ideas they can't stop thinking about. What moves them forward fastest is time with the people who have done it before them.
So we create that time. Our Summits bring a full day of conversations with founders, creators, athletes and executives to six cities. Pop-Ups take small groups inside the companies, studios and arenas where the work happens. Residencies give students several days in one field with a working practitioner, and the Beyond Now Fund backs students who are ready to launch something of their own.
We open these rooms to more students in more cities every year, because the sooner a student sees what is possible, the sooner they go and build it.
Four ways in, one purpose
What we believe
Where we'll be in 2027
One-day Summits, February through July. Pop-Ups run all year within a few hours of each Summit city.Austin, Los Angeles and London are for students enrolled in Summer Discovery or Atlas programs that summer.
Run by the team families already trust.
Beyond Now is part of Summer Discovery, which runs pre-college programs on leading university campuses in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada. The same people who look after students all summer plan and staff every Beyond Now event.
New names and new cities, before anyone else.
