In addition to the wide array of pet products and services on display, Interpets Osaka featured several key fringe events, including a business forum titled Successful Case Studies and Emerging Sectors in the Pet Industry. This forum provided valuable insights and strategies from industry players and entrepreneurs. The Happy Grooming Contest, meanwhile, gathered skilled groomers to showcase their talents, and was a highlight of the show for experts and enthusiasts alike. On the public day of the show, open to private pet owners, fairgoers enjoyed hands-on experiences such as a DIY pet accessory workshop, and a lively stage event focused on pet manners, hosted by popular blogger and manga artist, mamekichimameko.

"We made our debut with a new pet-specific air purifier and successfully engaged with business visitors, including those from pet salons, hotels, and major retailers. The interactions with general attendees also confirmed the effectiveness of our product, leaving us with strong prospects for future business."
Ms Karan Narita, Marketing Team, LG Electronics Japan Inc.
"Debuting our pet supplements, we secured deals with companies from Hong Kong and Taiwan and attracted strong interest from domestic pet salons, veterinarians, and stores. We are satisfied with the overall results and appreciated the chance to distribute samples and hold tastings on the public day."

"Our first-time showcase of our pet water product, which removes mineral content, attracted attention from a wide range of industries, including e-commerce platforms and disaster management companies. Although our primary goal was to raise awareness among private visitors, we were pleasantly surprised by the high number of purchase enquiries."
