Description

FCIA Connect: Where the Festival Conversations Continue

The Southwest Chocolate and Coffee Festival was just the beginning of the conversation. Now it is time to gather the FCIA community and talk about what happened, what we learned, and what we are taking with us.

Join us for the next FCIA Connect, our members-only online networking session where fine chocolate professionals from around the world come together to connect, share, and enjoy a little chocolate talk with people who truly get it.

FCIA Connect for Members 

  • Date: Monday, April 28, 2026 
  • Time: 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. ET 
  • Location: Online via Zoom

This Month's Theme: Triumphs and Lessons from the
Southwest Chocolate and Coffee Festival

Whether you were on the festival floor as a vendor, attended as a guest, or followed along from the other side of the world, this session is your chance to hear firsthand stories from those who were there, share your own experiences, and soak up the collective wisdom of the FCIA community.

What worked? What surprised you? What would you do differently? What moment made you remember exactly why you love this industry? Bring all of it.

FCIA Connect is one of the most energizing hours in a member's month, and this edition promises to be especially rich coming off the heels of one of the finest chocolate weekends of the year. You do not want to miss the stories that come out of this one.

Attendance is free for FCIA members. Register today to secure your Zoom link and save your spot in the conversation.
