MIAMI, FL — For six years, the Bloom Together Event has brought the floral industry together around one purpose: to celebrate and demonstrate the power of networking, collaboration, and community-building — together.

What began in Miami has grown through the participation of more than 1,500 floral industry professionals and the support of more than 80 collaborators, bringing people together from across sectors, companies, markets, and countries.

Now, by popular demand, the Bloom Together Event is taking that same purpose international.

For the first time, the Bloom Together Event, a Bloom Together Initiative powered by New Bloom Media, in collaboration with Ecuador y Sus Flores and The Dark Side of the Bloom, is expanding beyond Miami — beginning with the Ecuadorian floral community.

The Bloom Together Event – Ecuador will take place on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. in Quito, Ecuador.

A New International Chapter Begins in Ecuador

As one of the world’s leading flower-producing countries, Ecuador provides a meaningful starting point for the Bloom Together Event’s international expansion.

This next step reflects the continued growth of the Bloom Together Event and the demand to bring its spirit of networking, collaboration, and community-building to more floral communities around the world.

As the Bloom Together Event grows beyond Miami, the opportunity is to connect domestic and international floral communities more closely, creating more ways for professionals to meet, collaborate, and build community across borders.

The Ecuador edition is intentionally designed as a smaller gathering, with attendance limited to 200 confirmed guests, creating more opportunities for meaningful conversations and stronger connections across the floral supply chain.

“A stronger floral community creates a stronger floral industry,” said Sahid Nahim, Founder of New Bloom Solutions & New Bloom Media.

Extending the Impact Beyond the Event

Giving back has been part of the Bloom Together Event’s purpose as the initiative has grown.

To date, the Bloom Together Event has contributed more than $18,000 to floral industry nonprofits.

For the Ecuador edition, after direct event expenses are covered, remaining proceeds will be donated to nonprofit organizations supporting areas such as:

  • Education
  • Research
  • Workforce development
  • Continued growth of the floral and horticulture industries

The goal is to extend the impact of Bloom Together beyond the connections made during the event and continue supporting organizations working to strengthen the industry.

As Bloom Together reaches new floral communities, that commitment to creating impact beyond the event will remain part of how the initiative grows.
