Orlando, Tuesday, 18 November 2025.
At IAAPA Expo Orlando, PGAV marks six decades of design leadership and is using the show to pivot from pedigree to new commissions, targeting operators, investors and suppliers. The firm showcases a portfolio spanning Busch Gardens and Discovery Cove to Chimelong Ocean Kingdom — the world’s largest aquarium — underscoring its capabilities in immersive master planning, exhibit‑grade life‑support engineering and resilient infrastructure. Messaging is aimed at capital‑intensive aquarium and mixed‑use park projects where animal welfare engineering and integrated show systems shape lifecycle costs. For operators, PGAV brings case studies and technical credibility to inform feasibility and procurement; for investors, clearer views on return drivers and maintenance implications; for suppliers, partnership pathways on complex integrations. Appearing at the expo signals intent to convert retrospective credibility into forward‑looking commissions and to align multidisciplinary teams for projects that balance storytelling, animal care and resilient engineering. Expect conversations around lifecycle modelling, exhibit‑grade systems and multi‑disciplinary delivery.
