Announcing Green Coffee Summit
The Specialty Coffee Association has launched Green Coffee Summit
We are excited to announce Green Coffee Summit, a brand-new virtual event and resource library for anyone involved in the green coffee trade.
Set to take place August 25-26, 2021 in the US Eastern timezone, the free-to-attend summit will cover a range of topics and aim to introduce clarity and accessibility to market data, equipping green coffee buyers and sellers with independent, neutral information about consumer markets.
Showcasing panel discussions, lectures, and market presentations, the live two-day summit will offer insights and well-founded, actionable information valuable to green coffee sellers and traders. The first day of the event will be predominantly held in English, with a focus on in-depth analysis of topics such as supply chain structures, risk management for green coffee sellers, and recent shifts in the landscape for financing and logistics. The second day will feature a series of videos focused on consumer markets and regional consumption patterns that are complemented by a series of discussions featuring sellers with a history of success in each market. Both days will be punctuated with short, informational videos to introduce tools to aid green coffee sellers and buyers in understanding the value of their products, as well as how to find trading partners.
Aligning with the launch of the live event, the Green Coffee Summit website will serve as a resource library, offering a curated list of relevant, valuable content, across longform writing, videos, lectures, and podcasts.
“Coffee markets are increasingly diverse and dynamic, and the launch of Green Coffee Summit represents another exciting opportunity for us to listen to the industry’s needs and respond in kind,” says Yannis Apostolopoulos, Chief Executive Officer of the SCA. “Green coffee buyers and sellers need independent, neutral information about consumer markets, and we’re pleased to announce the creation of a platform that centralizes up-to-date, credible data and to facilitate discourse on key topics.”
