The Benchmark Company has selected B2i Digital, Inc. as Marketing Partner for its 14th Annual Discovery One-on-One Investor Conference, scheduled for December 4, 2025, at the New York Athletic Club. This partnership significantly expands the conference's reach, as B2i Digital will promote the event to its network of over 1.4 million institutional and sophisticated investors through digital and social channels. The conference serves as a critical connection point between emerging growth companies and qualified institutional investors, featuring one-on-one and small group meetings with management teams from more than 50 micro-cap and small-cap companies, many within Benchmark's research coverage.
David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital, emphasized the strategic importance of combining face-to-face investor engagement with digital marketing scale. The conference format includes eight 40-minute meeting slots from 8:45 AM to 3:40 PM ET, entirely dedicated to direct investor engagement. A luncheon panel discussion titled "Trends & Themes in Today's Capital Markets" will provide additional insights. The selection of B2i Digital leverages the firm's proprietary network and experience through its Featured Conference, Featured Company, and Featured Expert programs, demonstrating the growing role of digital marketing in capital markets engagement.
This collaboration underscores the evolving investor relations landscape, where traditional meetings are increasingly complemented by digital outreach. By combining Benchmark's 35-year institutional capital markets track record with B2i Digital's extensive digital network, the conference aims to enhance visibility for emerging companies while providing qualified investors efficient access to investment opportunities. The partnership reflects how digital marketing platforms are becoming integral to capital formation, particularly for micro-cap and small-cap companies seeking institutional exposure. The conference remains an exclusive, invite-only event with registration subject to Benchmark approval, maintaining its focus on connecting sophisticated investors with promising emerging-growth companies through both physical and digital channels.
