Virbac
Virbac (an acronym of virology and bacteriology) is a French company dedicated exclusively to animal health from the inception. It was founded over 50 years ago, in 1968, by French veterinarian Pierre-Richard Dick. He wanted the company to have a strong focus on vaccines and medicines for companion animals, differentiating the fledgling company from large pharmaceutical companies that specialized in livestock back in those days. Now, for over 50 years, we have been shaping the future of animal health through the wide range of our innovative solutions provided to veterinarians, farmers and pet owners.

★★★★★
That everyone is so engaged and interactive--the presenters are engaged with each other which has the effect of making the conversation a seamless whole. This format is so much MORE interactive than a huge lecture hall with zero opportunity to ask questions! I am taking home many valuable nuggets to my practice already.

Thank you for an excellent and well-organized webinar. The content was clear, practical, and highly relevant to everyday clinical practice. The extensive Q&A session at the end was particularly valuable, as it addressed many real-world clinical questions and added depth to the presentation. Overall, a very valuable program, thank you to the speakers, sponsors, and IntroVet for the quality of this event.

I really appreciated that the topics were directly applicable to general practitioners - so many CE's are specialty level information that I will never get to apply in my day to day work, but I am excited to be able to use so many things I learned this morning!!
