Gastech Exhibition & Conference

What Gastech Exhibition & Conference does

Gastech Exhibition & Conference, founded in 1972 and owned by dmg events, organises the world's largest annual exhibition and conference dedicated to natural gas, LNG, low carbon solutions, electrification and AI for energy. The platform combines a four-day exhibition (1,000 exhibitors across natural gas, LNG, hydrogen, electrification, shipping & marine, and low carbon solutions) with two parallel conference tracks: a Strategic Conference (200 sessions across 18 programmes featuring ministerial addresses and CEO panels) and a peer-reviewed Technical & Commercial Conference (70 sessions across 6 programmes). Premium, invitation-only layers include the Gastech Energy Club (1,000 senior leaders, 25 countries, 20 private meeting suites) and Chatham House Rule Leadership Roundtables.

The business operates as a recurring annual event rotating across major global cities, with the 2025 edition held in Milan and the 2026 edition scheduled for Bangkok at BITEC, hosted by Thailand's Ministry of Energy with Chevron and Shell as co-hosts. Supporting products include the Innovation Accelerator (start-up competition), Future Leaders and Talent for Energy Transformation programmes, AixEnergy (AI-infrastructure focus), the Hosted Buyer Programme, and a year-round Content Hub producing research reports with BCG, EY, and Wood Mackenzie. Revenue is generated through four primary streams: exhibition stand bookings (1,000 exhibitors), delegate pass sales (8,000 delegates), tiered sponsorship packages (Platinum, Gold, Silver, plus Energy Club and Gala Dinner sponsorships), and visitor registration, with pricing delivered via quote-based direct sales. The company serves a clearly defined buyer base spanning IOC/NOC C-suite executives, energy ministers and policymakers, technology suppliers, LNG buyers and utilities, investors and financiers, and early-career professionals, supported by a 50-member Governing Body and deep knowledge-partner ecosystem (BCG, EY, Wood Mackenzie, JOGMEC, GIIGNL, SIGTTO).
