SUMMARY:Pet Food Digital Summit 2025
DESCRIPTION:Register here \nThe Pet Food Digital Summit 2025 will take place on the 25 & 26 of March 2025 and will focus on key innovations and trends shaping the future of the pet food industry. Key themes will include Alternative Proteins & Sustainability Drivers and the Microbiome. \n\n\nThe summit will explore responsible sourcing of ingredients and evaluate emerging protein sources like plant-based\, insect\, and lab-grown proteins\, and how these novel inputs might address environmental concerns while also supporting nutritional goals. We will ask whether including human-grade meat in formulations is the most responsible approach and how might pet food companies lower manufacturing linked emissions. \nExperts will also discuss the role of gut health and the microbiome in improving pet nutrition\, wellness\, and overall health. Insights into new research on how microbiome-friendly ingredients can enhance digestion\, immunity\, and overall animal health\, will also be shared. \nThis event will bring together industry leaders\, researchers\, and innovators to discuss how these trends are shaping the future of pet food. \nKnow more on www.petfoodsummit.com.
