BEVA is delighted to announce that its 2008 Congress will be held in the European Capital of Culture 2008, Liverpool. Congress itself takes place at the brand new Liverpool Echo Arena and Convention Centre (ACC), Europe’s most environmentally friendly conference centre, designed to produce half the CO2 emissions of a traditional building.
The Scientific Programme retains many of the successful features of previous Congresses with parallel sessions of the best equine CPD available anywhere in the world, all strongly focused on the equine practitioner. As in previous years there will be a day of lectures dedicated to equine nurses, utilising the wealth of knowledge and experience of the equine experts present at Congress. All in all, there will be something for everyone, with sessions for students, new graduates and experienced prtactitioners. Clinical Research Sessions run parallel to the main Scientific Programme and provide the best opportunity to hear the latest developments in clinical science direct from the investigators.
The Social Programme provides unique opportunities for professional networking as well as catching up with old friends and Liverpool’s legendary nightspots will make for another outstanding social programme.
