Leaders from AVMA principal veterinary organizations in the states and Puerto Rico as well as from Canada, Mexico, and many AVMA constituent allied veterinary organizations came together once again in January for leadership development, decision making, strategizing, and networking.
The 2008 AVMA Veterinary Leadership Conference, Jan. 11-13, drew 470 leaders, topping last year's record attendance by 50. In recent years, Chicago has hosted the event, but this year's venue at a new hotel and convention center in Schaumburg, Ill., made nearby AVMA headquarters a popular tour destination.
