THE PET SUMMIT
Call for Speakers 2027
The Pet Summit is changing. Read below to learn about the new format and what it means for you.
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU
Help shape the future of the pet industry.
The Pet Summit is being reimagined to give attendees direct access to the connections they want to make, within a focused, premium environment. It's where those who gather at Global Pet Expo can step away from the bustling show floor to meaningfully connect with one another. Education will remain at the forefront, but the real learning will come from the conversations had in each room – which will be designed to help attendees build relationships with specific industry peers. As a speaker, rather than giving a traditional talk, your role is to share expertise relevant to your specific audience and facilitate the conversation among the attendees in the room. We invite you to share your insights and experience with our audience.
