Hill’s Pet Nutrition hosted its 2026 Global Symposium on 22–24 June in Phuket, Thailand, livestreamed globally via the Hill’s Veterinary Academy. The theme — ‘Healthy Skin Starts From Within: Exploring the Gut-Skin Axis’ — featured veterinary experts on gut microbiome, dermatologic health, hydrolyzed protein and elimination diet trials.
The gut-skin axis is no longer fringe science; it is entering mainstream veterinary CE via Hill’s global platform. Dermatology + GI overlap is the next frontier for functional and prescription pet nutrition, and the free global livestream model democratizes veterinary CE across Japan, Korea, China and Thailand — significant for Hill’s brand-building in emerging markets.
