Press release
After a successful first edition, the congress moves to the French Riviera!
Following a highly successful first edition of the CosmoPet International Congress, held on October 2–3, 2025 at Château Saint-Léger in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, the event dedicated to pet care, hygiene and perfumery products confirms its unique positioning and announces its next edition… on the French Riviera.
A foundational first edition for the pet cosmetic industry
Dedicated to the challenges of animal cosmetics, hygiene and perfumery, this first edition brought together the entire pet care ecosystem for two days in the prestigious setting of Château Saint-Léger.
Veterinarians, manufacturers, entrepreneurs, researchers and innovation experts gathered around a shared ambition: advancing the comfort, health and well-being of companion animals, while supporting the structuring of a fast-growing market.
Designed as a true hub for reflection and inspiration, the CosmoPet International Congress fostered the exchange of ideas, the analysis of emerging trends and the cross-fertilization of expertise. Conferences, panel discussions and pitch sessions explored the challenges ahead, anticipated regulatory and technological developments, and supported the growth of responsible innovations serving animal welfare.
A strategic event driven by innovation and collaboration
Beyond scientific and technical content, the congress has established itself as a key platform for professional networking.
Discussions led to new collaborations, accelerated emerging projects and provided participants with practical tools to develop their activities in a dynamic and rapidly evolving sector.
Attendees were able to deepen their knowledge, expand their professional networks and identify growth opportunities in areas such as coat care, animal dermatology, perfumed and deodorizing products, packaging, and pet care-focused marketing.
