A world class programme, featuring speakers, researchers, exhibitors and industry experts from across the globe, has been drawn together for PestWorld East 2025.
This is to be held between April 15-16, 2025, at the W Dubai – The Palm, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Held bi-annually, PestWorld East is organised by the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) in partnership with Ecovar, the leading supplier of pest management solutions. The aim is to unite pest professionals from around the world, but particularly from the Middle East, Africa, South Asia and India.
Dominique Stumpf, chief executive of NPMA, said: “In today’s interconnected world, pest management challenges transcend borders and demands innovative and collaborative solutions. PestWorld East will provide credible, unbiased information from legal, technical, business and customer-oriented perspectives.
“We are delighted to have drawn together a line-up of world class speakers, a bustling exhibition with exhibitors coming from across Europe, USA and the Far East, plus time within the programme for networking and socialising.”
