Following the success of our first in-person symposium, the Global Prebiotic Association (GPA) will host the 2nd Annual Prebiotics Symposium on March 3rd, early during show week, near Anaheim. This event was created to address a clear industry gap: high-quality, prebiotic-specific education delivered by experts deeply embedded in this category.
The in-person format is intentional. It creates space for deeper discussion, stronger networking, and a more dynamic exchange of ideas, while continuing to build GPA’s credibility and footprint within the broader natural products industry.
This event will explore the transformative potential of prebiotics across health and wellness, with themes surrounding:

Gastrointestinal Health and Mental Well-Being
Practical Applications
Microbiome Diagnostics
Innovative Prebiotic Concepts
Synbiotics

With attendance capped at just 60 participants, the Prebiotics Symposium offers an intimate setting to engage with leading researchers, industry pioneers, and innovative thinkers in the microbiome field.
This is your chance to be a part of the conversation in the prebiotics and microbiome science. We look forward to seeing you at the Prebiotics Symposium!
