Promotional graphic for the Asia Pacific Autism Conference (APAC) 2025. At the top, the APAC logo appears next to text that reads: “Asia Pacific Autism Conference, 13–15 November 2025, Perth, Australia.” Below that, large bold text announces, “APAC 2025 PROGRAM OUT NOW.” A banner below reads: “Discover the Conference Themes,” followed by four circular icons representing different themes: a red icon with two human figures (likely representing individuals or relationships), a blue icon with two people (possibly professionals or families), a purple icon with three people (community or group focus), and a green icon with hands holding a heart (care or wellbeing). A large blue cursor points to the red icon. The bottom of the image states: “APAC 2025 • 13–15 NOV • Crown Perth.” The background features a darkened city skyline of Perth, Australia.
