The Beans Group

The Beans Group Limited is a London-based marketing technology and youth-media company founded in 2005 by brothers James and Michael Eder. Its main brand, Student Beans, supplies student verification and discount/loyalty programmes to retailers and brands across web, mobile and in-store channels. It earns money from brands and agencies, who pay for youth-marketing reach, insights and tools. It is not primarily an AI company. Published headcount estimates range from about 50 to about 590, and revenue estimates from about $68M to $146M (2023), so I left both out. No external funding is reported.
