About BEA
Our story begins with a simple yet powerful idea: to bridge the gap between local fashion and beauty professionals and the global stage.
BEA stands as a beacon of opportunity. The hub was created to be your local growth and global reach partner, helping you go beyond by encountering the right insights and refining your branding strategies.
Mission, Vision and Values
Our Vision:
At BEA, we envision a world where every aspiring fashion and beauty entrepreneur, creator, designer and talent possesses the tools and knowledge to thrive. We believe in the power of uniting creativity and a forward-thinking mindset with a touch of sassiness.
Our hub is the safe space for co-creation, co-communication, and co-innovation, fostering an environment where ideas can flourish toward a positive impact. We are committed to building a community that empowers, inspires, and uplifts toward a more fair, conscious, and culturally enriched industry – and you’re invited to be part of it!
Our Mission:
Ana & Julia’s path from college classmates to co-founders of BEA is a story of unexpected turns and shared dreams. Reuniting in 2020 at a New Yorker company, they discovered a mutual passion for revolutionizing the fashion industry.
Their backgrounds in communications, business development, and fashion, luxury and social impact studies have led them to create BEA – the coolest hub in the market for fashion & lifestyle professionals.
