Women-Powered Coffee Summit

October 15-17, 2026
Early Bird Ticket Starting at $425

Why We’re Coming Together

This isn’t just another coffee event.

For four years, the Women-Powered Coffee Summit has been the gathering where smallholder women producers lead the conversation — not as guests, but as architects of the industry's future.

In 2026, we go deeper.

For three days in Chiapas, we’re building a space where voices are amplified, opportunities are shared, and equity moves from aspiration to action. What will emerge is more than a summit: it is a community-in-motion. Women take the lead — sharing stories of success, sustainability, and resilience. Because progress isn't just about growth. It's about return.

Our Three Pillars

❋ Safe & Inclusive Space

We connect women across the full coffee value chain — producers, traders, roasters, baristas, and researchers — in an environment built for honest conversation and lasting connection.

❋ Women as Protagonists

This is a platform where women lead with their own knowledge and experiences — not as footnotes to the industry's story, but as its authors.

❋ Success & Sustainability

We spotlight what's working — successful women, climate-smart practices, and intersectional approaches — and turn those insights into real opportunities for growth.
