Our vision, as the theme of the event suggests, is to provide a better veterinary education and supply veterinarians with cutting-edge education and practical skills with accredited certification to further improve veterinary practices. The event will provide thought leadership and will showcase the latest regional needs, trends and technics of the modern veterinary industry,”

“Animal and wildlife health are closely interlinked to our health and wellbeing; we live in association with millions of other animal species and we share the same environment too; and the COVID-19 pandemic was nothing but a clear demonstration of this. MEAVC and through serious meetings, thought leadership and collaboration with the participants in the event will contribute to the continued development of principles and practices in the veterinary field and will strive to make an innovative veterinary medicine accessible to more people around the world.”, Dr. Vassiliki added.

The first day of the event (November 25th) will illustrate three "hands-on" pre-congress workshops dedicated to veterinarians to provide skills applicable in everyday clinical practice. The scientific congress and exhibition will take place on the second and third day (November 26th, 27th), with 4 simultaneous learning streams which will provide the delegates with valuable knowledge, from over 42 internationally renowned speakers.

With exceptional speakers, scientific partners, and key veterinary organisations, the event is set to be a unique and eventful congress and exhibition in the region. More than 100 topics from various disciplines will be put under discussion, including internal medicine, surgery, emergency, critical care, anesthesiology and analgesia, practice management, and a unique One Health Round table.
