IWCA Networking Breakfast at NCA, Tampa 2026

Friday, March 13, 2026 | 8:00–9:00 AM
Tampa, Florida

Join us for the annual IWCA Networking Breakfast featuring keynote speaker Beth Spong, CEO of Dean's Beans Organic Coffee. Beth leads a thirty-two-year-old company rooted in long-standing partnerships at origin and a history of shaping the ethics conversation in specialty coffee long before sustainability became a marketing pillar.

Her talk, “Sustaining What Sustains Us,” takes a clear-eyed look at what keeps this industry resilient. Not theory. Not trend language. The real foundations that matter to every company in the room: the farms, the land, the people who grow the coffee, and the long-term decisions that determine whether this industry thrives for the next generation.

Beth’s perspective comes from decades of hands-on work with producers as well as years spent navigating growth, succession, and governance within a values-driven business. She understands legacy, the weight of reputation, and what it takes to align a company’s future with the future of coffee itself.

This session is designed for leaders who think beyond quarterly cycles and care about stewardship, resilience, and long-term value. It will be thoughtful, relevant, and directly aligned with the questions shaping boardrooms across the industry today.

Join us for a morning built around clarity, connection, and a shared commitment to strengthening what sustains us all.
