Brakke 咨询观点
您如何评价该行业的现状？上升——由于宠物数量增加、宠物消费总额上升以及近期一些畜牧业趋势走强。下降——由于兽医就诊量减少、消费者对价格的担忧以及行业整合导致的失业。各种信号交织在一起。.

One area that seems to be growing is an explosion of industry groups. There are now associations related to therapeutic categories, groups related to women in the industry, those serving hospitals from accountants and architects to software providers and HR professionals. Undoubtedly, efforts to attract interest from outside the industry’s traditional core are paying off.

We’ve also seen a realignment of conference activity. While some local conferences have shrunk or disappeared, others have emerged. One incomplete list notes about 40 veterinary clinic focused conferences this year alone. And that doesn’t include livestock-related conferences or those focused on the ancillary areas supporting the broader animal health industry.

One that is coming soon is the August Nashville conference organized by Viticus Group, the company behind the Western Veterinary Conference in Las Vegas. What’s motivating this bold move? Is it addressing an unmet need?  Will a central US location later in the year offer an attractive option?  We at Brakke are curious to see the attendance and energy that this debut conference brings.

上周我们询问大家认为哪支球队会赢得NCAA男篮和女篮锦标赛冠军。恭喜两位答对的受访者，他们分别正确选择了男篮冠军（密歇根大学）和女篮冠军（加州大学洛杉矶分校）。.

以下是其余结果。.

杰夫从他的角度出发，讨论了今年8月在纳什维尔举行的WVC会议的首次亮相。, 所以我们想知道您是否计划参加。.
