Hill’s Pet Nutrition of Topeka, Kan., has joined the American College of Veterinary Surgeons’ Industry Partners Program. ACVS launched the program in October with the goal of providing exclusive opportunities tailored to match companies' strategic objectives while concurrently advancing veterinary surgery. Hill’s has supported ACVS educational programs for more than 20 years, sponsoring the Mark W. Allam Lecture, the multi-day technicians’ program and ACVS Veterinary Symposium scientific seminars, as well as being a regular contributor to the ACVS Foundation. “We take pride in our special relationship with veterinarians around the world, and we’re committed to supporting professional organizations that help the veterinary health care industry thrive,” said Daniel Aja, DVM, director of professional affairs for Hill’s. “With that in mind, we are very pleased to team up with the American College of Veterinary Surgeons in the ACVS Industry Partners Program. This unique association between Hill’s and the American College of Veterinary Surgeons will help allow the ACVS to further this mission, and we are delighted to be a part of this strategy moving forward.” As part of its financial commitment, Hill’s will receive verbal and logo recognition as an Industry Partner at ACVS events, a full-page advertisement in an edition of the ACVS Newsletter, face-to-face meetings with ACVS leaders, and first choice of symposium and other sponsorship opportunities, among other benefits. Novartis Animal Health U.S. Inc. of Greensboro, N.C., and VetCareComplete Inc. of Richmond, Va., are already partners. <HOME>
