VetFest Marketplace - A dedicated Industry Week for the Veterinary Profession - coming 22nd November 2021

The AVA is excited to announce VetFest Marketplace – a dedicated Industry Week for the veterinary profession. It's free with registration, and you can register your attendance here now!

2021 continues to be a year of disruption for all involved in the veterinary profession. Opportunities to meet with, and talk to, the wider industry have been limited due to the many restrictions and safety concerns imposed by the pandemic.

With that in mind, The AVA has been working hard to create ‘VetFest Marketplace’ - a special week, designed to connect AVA members with the latest information from around the industry. 

VetFest Marketplace will launch on the 22nd November. Over the course of 5 nights, the AVA will showcase presentations from more than a dozen industry partners, across all fields of the profession.

The conference will focus on the issues facing the veterinary profession today - and tomorrow. Topics will include discussions on how technology will change us, cutting edge clinical updates, managing staff issues, career development and much more. There will also be opportunities to discuss the latest products and innovations with marketplace speakers.

VetFest Marketplace will be hosted on the VetFest platform, where the VetFest 2021 program is still available on demand.

“We know how important collegiality is to our profession, which is why the AVA continues to adapt through innovative change, to keep our people connected, particularly during times like now, when we need it the most.  

"I am extremely excited about this new AVA initiative, which will effectively open vital communication channels between our members and key industry partners.

"As our professional environment continues to undergo rapid change, keeping abreast of latest veterinary products and innovations, and maintaining relationships with our industry representatives has never been more important.

"I encourage everyone to register for VetFest Marketplace. Come along, and give yourself a well-earned ‘leg up’, by being part of the conversations, and privy to the knowledge influencing the necessary evolution of the way we practice veterinary medicine”, Dr Warwick Vale, AVA President.

• AVA Members can access VetFest Marketplace free of charge by registering on the VetFest platform. The presentations can also be viewed on demand via the VetFest platform for a period of 3 months following VetFest Marketplace. There will be product offers available to AVA Members who register for a limited time only.
• Non-members can also access VetFest Marketplace live-only for free.

The full list of VetFest Marketplace partners will be announced soon. You can register your attendance here now!
