World Coffee Forum is Asia’s premier coffee knowledge and insight platform—a space where coffee professionals, brands, creators, and enthusiasts gather to learn, share inspiration, and discover fresh perspectives.

In 2026, the World Coffee Leaders Forum takes a bold step forward as the World Coffee Forum. By moving beyond the weight of the word “Leaders,” the forum expands into a more inclusive stage—reaching past industry leaders to connect diverse perspectives inspired by coffee.

Since 2012, the World Coffee Forum has consistently posed the most defining questions facing the coffee industry. As a global platform for sharing coffee knowledge that responds to evolving times and trends, we are proud to present our 15th edition this year.

Under the theme “Why We Drink Coffee?”, the 2026 World Coffee Forum explores how coffee becomes a daily routine, an expression of taste, and a catalyst for space and connection across four perspectives: Ritual, Taste, Space, and Connection. We hope this gathering expands your industry perspective and naturally unleashes new questions and possibilities.

Thank you.
