ABIDJAN, Côte d’Ivoire – The World Cocoa Conference (WCC) is a ground-breaking networking event created by the International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) and launched in 2012 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire.
Organized every two years to assess the status of the world cocoa economy, review current challenges and agree on measures to address these issues, it has now been established as the leading forum for the global cocoa sector, with over 1,500 delegates attending the last edition in Berlin, Germany in 2018.
It is the only event in the cocoa sector to bring together a diverse range of decision-makers and other stakeholders in the cocoa and chocolate value chain, from all over the world in one place, representing a unique opportunity to encourage discussion of challenges and opportunities, to gather intelligence, to make new contacts and to do business.
After four successful editions held in Africa, then Europe and Latin America, the Conference is moving to Asia and Oceania for the first time, providing a great opportunity for the global cocoa community to focus on the third largest cocoa producing region of the world.
The fifth edition of the World Cocoa Conference (WCC5) will be hosted by the Government of Indonesia in partnership with the ICCO at the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center (BNDCC), a state-of-the-art business facility within a truly stunning location.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 5th edition of the World Cocoa Conference has been postponed to 2021. For further updates, please visit the Conference website or contact +44 (0) 20 7780 4340, email: info@worldcocoaconference.org
