Growth in Participation and Global Reach
This year, the event showed significant growth in the global audience, with a noticeable increase in international participation. Spanish and Portuguese attendees showed higher growth with strong interest from Colombia, Brazil, and Mexico. Moreover, French as the official language allowed the event to extend to new regions, including Africa.
The in-person version brought together a highly specialized public, while the online viewers were active during the event, consolidating the global impact of this year's edition.
A Great Effort of Dissemination and Digital Production
The International Recycling Symposium 2025, organized by the North American Renderers Association (NARA), achieved a significant impact thanks to the comprehensive strategy of dissemination and digital production. The advertising had the valuable support of associations and specialized media, such as ABRA, All Pet Food, and Pet Food Latinoamérica, which actively contributed to its dissemination through digital platforms, increasing the reach in the sector.
Besides leading the symposium's organization, NARA played a key role in the digital production of the event, managing each stage of the process: before, during, and after the event. It also had the support of AgriGlobal Market, which collaborated with the digital strategy, ensuring effective communication and an accessible platform for participants at a global level.
An Expanding Event
The rendering and animal nutrition industry was a meaningful sector in the event and represented an important part of the attendees. In addition, the growing participation of the education sector reaffirmed the importance of the symposium as a training and updating platform for professionals in the industry.
The success of the International Rendering Symposium 2025 bolsters the relevance of the event as an essential meeting point. With growing global interest and expanded participation, the symposium continues to position itself as a benchmark in the discussion about sustainability and the biocircular economy worldwide.
The conferences in all languages and the PDFs of each presentation are available on the event's official webpage: Home | Nara Symposium.
