By embedding hospitality-grade meeting and event spaces inside Class A buildings for landlords like Brookfield and Vornado, Simonetti built Convene into a $260M-backed enterprise workspace operator that sells quality over co-working chaos.
Ryan Simonetti co-founded Convene in 2009 and runs it as CEO, building premium flexible workspaces and meeting venues inside Class A office buildings in cities including New York, Philadelphia, Washington DC, and Los Angeles.
The company partners with landlords like Brookfield, Vornado, and RXR Realty, and has raised over $260 million. Unlike co-working operators chasing freelancers, Convene targets enterprise clients with hospitality-grade conference and event services.
