This Valentine’s season, chocolate may be everywhere — but behind every bar lies one of the world’s most complex and fragile global supply systems.

Join **Francisco Martin-Rayo**, CEO of **Helios AI**, in conversation with **Robin Dand**, Secretary General of the **Federation of Cocoa Commerce**, for a timely discussion on the forces reshaping the cocoa market — and what lies ahead.

The conversation will explore why cocoa volatility looks fundamentally different than it did even a few years ago, how climate risk, regulation, and sustainability requirements are compounding pressure across the supply chain, and why traditional approaches to managing cocoa risk are no longer sufficient.

Looking ahead, Francisco and Robin will focus on the **12–24 month outlook for cocoa**, the signals that matter most beneath the headlines, and what “good decision-making” looks like for leaders navigating unprecedented uncertainty. Drawing on deep market experience and predictive insights from Helios AI, the session will highlight how leading organizations are moving from reactive responses to proactive foresight.

### **What you’ll learn:**

*   Why cocoa volatility today is **structurally different**, not just cyclical
*   How **climate risk, regulation, and sustainability requirements** are interacting — and amplifying market pressure
*   What the **next 12–24 months** could hold for cocoa supply, pricing, and risk
*   Which **early signals** matter most for buyers and traders (beyond headlines)
*   What separates organizations that **anticipate disruption** from those that are constantly surprised
*   How procurement, trading, and executive teams can **make better decisions in uncertain markets**

Whether you buy, trade, or manage risk in cocoa, this webinar offers a grounded, forward-looking perspective on how to protect what we love — and prepare for what’s coming next.
