One Day in
New York City.

There are a hundred reasons to be in New York in October. A single day in the right room has a way of changing how you think about the next twelve months. From boutique blocks to classic dining, here is where we’ll be staying, eating, and refueling while in town.

Food and Refreshments

You won't go hungry. Lunch is fully covered, and the evening wraps with a cocktail reception above Times Square from 5:30 to 7:00 PM.

Location

Fly into any of the three New York airports. The Well& by Durst is right in the middle of midtown.

Networking Reception

An open cocktail hour to close out the day. Drinks and hors d'oeuvres from 5:30 to 7:00 PM alongside the operators you came here to meet.

Room to think.
Reason to stay.

The schedule is the setup. The conversations are the point. Every block of the day is built to create the conditions for thinking that doesn't happen anywhere else.

Get here early. The conversations start before the program does.

Opening Keynote

A leading economist sets the frame for subscription in 2026 and beyond.

Lunch

Catered, covered, and a good excuse to keep talking.

Sessions and Roundtables

Peer-led, candid, and built around the challenges that actually matter.

Cocktail Hour, 5:30-7 PM

The night closes above Times Square. Drinks, hors d'oeuvres, and the city below you.

Backing
The Conversation

A select group of industry partners making this closed-door session possible. No booths. No pitches. Just collaborative leadership.

A seat at the table.Not a spot on the floor.

The room only works because we kept it small. Forty partner slots, one flat rate, and every partner spends the day as a participant alongside the hundred operators who said yes to the invite.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Who qualifies to attend?

Senior operators at DTC subscription brands. We're looking for founders, CEOs, and C-suite leaders running businesses at $20M or above. Everyone in the room is carrying real weight.

What is the cost to attend?

Attendance is complimentary for qualified subscription brands. That includes food and beverages throughout the day. If you're a solutions provider looking to get in the room, inquire about partnership opportunities here.

How is this different than SubSummit?

SubSummit is our flagship conference with 2,000+ attendees across multiple days. The Mastermind is its closed-door counterpart. One day, 100 seats, invitation-led in New York City. Think of it as the conversation that happens at the edges of every big conference, pulled into its own room and given the space it deserves.

What does a sponsorship include?

Two full event tickets, a seat at the roundtable discussions, access to the evening reception, and a full day alongside the subscription operators who own the decisions you care about. One flat rate. No tiers, no upsells, no booth to staff.

Are sessions recorded?

No. The Mastermind is off the record by design. It's what makes the conversations worth having. You either show up or you miss them.
