“How did they make the best event I've ever been to in the impact space on their first try? It's like making an Oscar-winning film on your first time you hold a camera."

Rostam Zafari
Founder, World Within Foundation

The inaugural Elea Summit in Mexico City brought together 50 of our members & community for unforgettable connection.

The Inaugural Elea Summit unfolded against the backdrop of one of the most exciting cities in the world for art and architecture. We opened by shutting down the National Museum of Anthropology after dark. We talked about craft and philosophy and art and creativity. We tried corn grown in the volcanic ash of a dormant volcano. We hiked in the hills and rode ATVs and harvested honey with beekeepers. We laughed and cried and in all of it, we nourished our inner & outer lives with old friends and new.

“We are at an incredible ranch about an hour out of Mexico City. And it literally feels like we've entered a whole new world."

Rachel Springate
Founder, Muse Capital

“There's a lot of success represented at this conference, but also a lot of humility."

Michael Greenberg
Investor

An homage to the un-conference

Elea rejects tradition and departs from the status quo. Instead, our summits are re-imagined from the ground up. By avoiding traditional keynote speakers and panels in favor of small group discussions, we break through conventional boundaries that confine networks to the strictly professional and we honor the wisdom held by members in the community. We engage in heartfelt discussions about business, philosophy, craft, parenting, marriage, and death—cherishing the space we have together, discovering what we share in common, and what we can learn from our differences.

Setting the table

At the 2024 Elea Summit in Mexico City, we wove the rich tapestry of indigenous cuisine and modern Mexican culinary masters. We served the avant-garde and invited the ambitions of emerging talents. Each meal, drink, and table-setting was cut from the cloth of unreasonable hospitality. Elea takes meticulous attention to not just the curation of exceptional people, but to weave together the tapestry of a place. To set a table where everyone is full & everyone is welcome.

Designed to delight the senses

From the National Museum of Anthropology to a restored hacienda to a century-old family ranch, Elea meticulously designs experiences that defy tradition. We believe beauty inspires the best in us and by inviting the beauty of the natural world and taking our members to new unexpected geographies, we invite new journeys inward. The Elea Summit is a leaping-off-point for bold new discoveries about ourselves and unexpected connections with old friends and new.
