Think and Link
Past Event

Scott Walker

Cocoa industry guru and founding member of KSW Global, Scott Walker, took the Think & Link stage on October 24, 2019.

About the Speaker

As the former President of ADM Cocoa and Chairman of the European Cocoa Association, Scott Walker is an established player in the global cocoa industry, with nearly two decades of experience. After selling ADM Cocoa and being out of the industry for 3 years, Scott began to think differently about the cocoa supply chain, realizing the current system was largely opaque and that consumers and customers were not getting clear and honest information. Recognizing that transparency and traceability could lead farmers to produce better cocoa beans, Scott is seeking to shift cocoa industry standards with his newest venture, KSW Global.

About the Talk:

Scott will lead a conversation on a guiding mantra of the KSW Global brand: “Cocoa doesn’t have to be complicated.” Scott will share his vision of connecting innovative farmers to discerning consumers and walk us through the benefits of a healthy supply chain built from quality ingredients.
