Conference Program with over 40 sessions

In addition to a vibrant and dynamic show floor that fostered new partnerships across the pet industry, Pet Fair South East Asia 2025 also presented its most extensive conference program to date in the event’s still young history.

Spread across two special stages within the exhibition halls, more than 40 conference sessions were held, covering a wide range of topics focused on the latest trends, innovations, and market insights shaping the global pet industry. In total, these sessions were attended by 1,706 participants.

Furthermore, Petfood Forum Asia, organized by WATT Global Media—the organizers behind Petfood Forum in Kansas City—returned for the second time to Bangkok in co-location with Pet Fair South East Asia. The technical seminar attracted nearly 100 pet food industry professionals, offering valuable insights into the latest pet food processing trends and unique networking opportunities to expand international business connections.

The organizers extend their sincere gratitude to all speakers and contributors who helped create such a diverse, engaging, and educational conference experience over the three days.

Networking Events

In light of the passing of Thailand’s beloved Queen Mother Sirikit, and in observance of the national mourning period, the organizers decided to adjust the 2025 event format. The Show Day 1 in-hall networking event was held in a respectfully modified and toned-down format, while the rooftop networking event, originally scheduled for the evening of Day 2, was cancelled in accordance with the period of mourning.
