WELCOME

        Dear ACVC Attendees, Faculty, Exhibitors, and Sponsors,

        It is with great privilege and honor that we welcome you to the 30th annual Atlantic
        Coast Veterinary Conference® (ACVC). We take great pride in offering the best
        experience possible for animal care professionals so they can in turn provide optimal
        care for their patients. The conference also features an engaging platform for our
        sponsors and exhibitors to showcase their products and services.

        Our agenda this year offers something for all animal care professionals, including
        sessions on regenerative medicine, oncology, dentistry, anesthesia, and acupuncture.
        We are also excited to announce the return of the Veterinary CrossfireTM panel
        discussion and debate featuring some of the top experts in animal care discussing the
        use of medical cannabis and cannabinoid for patients.

        On behalf of everyone at dvm360®, I thank our attendees, faculty, and partners for
        being part of ACVC’s 30th anniversary.

        Sincerely,

        YOUSEF ELHUSSEINI, MBA
        Director of Sales, dvm360®
