VBMA Speed Networking - Sign up Here!
Saturday, 3/18 from 11:00-12:50PM
Join the VBMA for an exciting event of networking with an opportunity to unwind and grab a drink while you network with peers and professionals of the veterinary industry! This will be set up in a speed networking style to allow for everyone to meet an ample amount of people. While you mingle, feel free to grab some finger food and refill your glasses at the bar! This event will be open to VBMA members first and any extra seats will be raffled off to non-VBMA attendees at the SAVMA Symposium.
