Trieste Coffee Experts 2025: Coffee Megatrends

The 8th edition of Trieste Coffee Experts – conceived and organized by the Italian artisan roasters Bazzara – is a summit dedicated to the coffee industry professionals in Italy with the aim to connect the various segments of the supply chain with a systemic approach.

Since 2014, this biennial event has brought many of the key players in the coffee supply chain to Trieste, with the goal of encouraging connection and fostering the development of ideas and concrete solutions to overcome the sector’s most pressing challenges.

In the latest edition, dating back to 2023, titled “Future Coffee: Innovation & Sustainability” these important topics were addressed by leading experts in the field. With a packed schedule of case studies, the great success of the summit paved the road to its highly awaited next edition.

The forthcoming two-day summit will take place on December 6th and 7th 2025 at the Savoia Excelsior Palace in Trieste, with the title “Coffee Megatrends”. Prominent change-makers, leveraging their own expertise, will face the forces that are revolutionizing the entire supply chain: speculation, artificial intelligence, sustainability, innovation, and many more.

This year’s event holds important news: two new formats will enrich the carefully crafted programme. The “Stati Generali del Caffè” (General States of Coffee) brings together Italy’s main coffee associations for a collective debate and the “Think Tank Torrefattori” invites the representatives of renowned coffee roasteries from Italy – from North to South – to talk about the challenges they are facing and share their unique points of view.

Proved to be a highly strategic event for the entire sector due to the hot topics and unique contributions, the Trieste Coffee Experts is a pillar of Bazzara’s cultural initiatives spreading coffee culture across Europe and beyond with books, events and courses.
