ICC 2023 | Mannheim
The first edition of the International Coffee Convention
A foundational gathering of researchers, industry experts and practitioners focused on applied science in coffee.
Overview
ICC 2023 marked the beginning of a new format in the coffee world: a convention designed to connect scientific insight with practical consequence across the value chain.
Held in Mannheim, the first edition established the intellectual identity of ICC through a programme that brought together multiple disciplines, current challenges and real-world applicability.
It demonstrated that there is a strong need for a platform where research can be presented not as distance, but as relevance.
What Defined the 2024 Edition
The 2023 edition stood out for its thematic breadth, scientific seriousness and openness to dialogue between different professional worlds.
It created a space where coffee could be examined not only as an agricultural commodity or a consumer product, but as a complex system shaped by biological, technological, economic, environmental and social forces.
