About Kombucha Summit
After our amazing event in Berlin in 2019 and two virtual events
in 2020 and 2021, we are extremely excited to host this yearâs
Kombucha Summit as an in-person event again.
From conversations with hundreds of kombucha producers, we know
how challenging it can be to build a sustainable kombucha brand
and business. Kombucha Summit is here to provide a knowledge
exchange and networking platform for kombucha producers from
around the world and help them succeed.
The two-day conference will gather commercial kombucha producers
and industry partners in one place for networking, knowledge
exchange and a lot of kombucha tasting. Our main goal is to help
kombucha producers develop amazing products and scale their
businesses. We will also just have a good time!
COVID-19 remarks: We will announce any updates regarding
COVID-19 regulations on our website, social media and through
our newsletter. As of now, there are no limitations to
in-person events in Berlin. For any questions, just contact
us!

About Us
Meet the team behind Kombucha Summit.
Fabio Carlucci
Founder & CEO of ROY KombuchaWe opened our own kombucha brewery in the summer of 2019 in Berlin and have been experiencing the needs and challenges of kombucha brewers first hand. As a former community builder in my previous career, I felt a format like Kombucha Summit was missing. Bringing the whole industry together to learn from each other and network is what we set out to do, with the goal of helping each other and the kombucha market succeed.
Venue
An amazing location with loads of entrepreneurial history.
KĂŒhlhaus Berlin is a cultural landmark, and a unique example of pre-war industrial architecture. Today, it is an event location, located at the junction of the districts of Schöneberg and Kreuzberg, with Mitte only a stoneâs throw away.
