Beliade Presents at Concordia Annual Summit 2025
Dear Friends,
Martin hosted a panel discussion at the esteemed Concordia Annual Summit 2025 in New York City alongside several Beliade portfolio brand executives: Ben Van Leeuwen, CEO and Co-Founder of Van Leeuwen Ice Cream; Nell Diamond, CEO and Founder of Hill House Home; and Jess Jacobs, CEO of Coterie.
The topic was “Building Brands People Love: Leading Values-Driven Consumer Companies” focusing on how brands can foster a sense of purpose, authenticity, and a deep emotional connection with customers.
This was a phenomenal opportunity to put Beliade’s firm and portfolio brands in front of a diverse, high-profile audience of public and private sector decision makers, from global heads of state to world-renowned C-suite executives (and even Elmo).
