What is Anniversary
The Bean Path is turning 8 years old—and we're celebrating with a week-long experience that honors our journey, our community, and the future of tech in Mississippi!
For eight years, The Bean Path has been planting seeds of innovation, mentorship, and opportunity—bridging the tech gap in Jackson and beyond. Now it’s time to celebrate the impact we’ve made together.
Expect dynamic events, hands-on experiences, and inspiring stories that reflect how far we’ve come—and where we’re going next. Each day of the celebration will spotlight one of the incredible communities we serve—from youth and entrepreneurs to tech professionals and lifelong learners.
