Geneva Sugar Conference 2027

The 16th Annual Geneva Sugar Conference brings together 350+ producers, buyers, traders, and policymakers from across Europe and the world.

The sugar market is at a fascinating and challenging crossroads right now. European producers are dealing with the practical realities of tighter beet acreage, stricter environmental rules, and shifting regional balances. Meanwhile, global price trends are heavily influenced by macroeconomic volatility and crop stress across major origins, driven by an active El Niño cycle.

Over two days of discussions and networking, we’ll cut through the noise to look at where European and global trade flows and prices are shifting, and what practical steps the industry is taking toward decarbonization. It’s the essential gathering for your annual strategic planning.

• European sugar market outlook and global price trends: Get a realistic look at regional production forecasts, trade balances, and the actual forces moving prices.
• Trade policy, supply shocks, and domestic pricing challenges: Talk through shifting regulations, trade barriers, and how to manage risk in a volatile market.
• Innovation and decarbonization across the sugar value chain: Share notes on what’s working to shrink environmental footprints from farm to factory.
• Climate resilience and the future of beet cultivation: Address the day-to-day agronomic headaches, water constraints, and weather volatility growers are facing.
• Health policies, reformulation, and alternative sweeteners: Keep a finger on the pulse of changing consumer habits and regulatory trends.

Join us in Geneva to catch up with peers, hear straight from S&P Global Energy analysts, and find new opportunities right across the supply chain.
