International Synergy in Trieste

Coffee at the Crossroads:
Climate, Consumers and Circularity
Date: 19–20 October 2026

The International Coffee Convention brings applied science to the centre of coffee industry decision-making — connecting rigorous research with practical relevance across the entire value chain.

Trieste is preparing to become an international meeting point for the global coffee industry

The International Coffee Convention will take place on October 19–20, 2026, immediately preceding TriestEspresso Expo, scheduled for October 21–23, 2026.

Two distinct yet highly complementary events that together will strengthen Trieste’s role as an international coffee capital and a strategic hub for business, innovation, and professional exchange.

This collaboration represents a significant added value for exhibitors, visitors, and participating companies:

• stronger international appeal
• more qualified visitors
• presence of leading companies and industry professionals
• increased attention from European and trade media
• new networking and B2B meeting opportunities
• innovative content on the key topics shaping the future of coffee

The International Coffee Convention will bring to Trieste a highly qualified audience focused on sustainability, health, science, safety, innovation, circular economy, and new market perspectives.

TriestEspresso Expo will complement this with its B2B trade fair dimension, enabling companies to turn relationships, content, and networking into concrete business opportunities.

The 2026 edition will also feature competitions, professional workshops, technical and regulatory insights, market studies, and analysis of emerging trends across the coffee supply chain.


A week to do business in Trieste.

19–20 October 2026 | Trieste, Italy

21–23 October 2026 | Trieste, Italy

The International Coffee Convention is neither a purely academic conference nor a conventional trade fair. It is a highly focused international forum where scientific depth, industry relevance and interdisciplinary exchange come together in a format designed for real-world application.

Held in Mannheim in 2023 and 2024 and now coming to Trieste in October 2026, ICC has developed a distinct identity within the global coffee landscape.

Its defining strength lies in a rare balance: rigorous research is not presented in isolation, but brought into direct conversation with the immediate needs of the coffee sector.

Among the vast body of ongoing research, ICC curates with intention.
The focus is not on abstract complexity for its own sake, but on work that is methodologically sound, strategically relevant and practically interpretable for decision-makers across the coffee world.
