Announcing the Maryland
Veterinary Industry Council
The Maryland Veterinary Industry
Council (MDVIC) has been approved by, and is partnering with,
the Maryland Veterinary Medical Association (MVMA).
The mission of the MDVIC is to establish and enhance open
communication between members of the MVMA and industry
representatives, and to help achieve the goals of both
organizations.
The new organization will help to
improve awareness between the MVMA members and industry partners
of mutual benefits, and will allow industry partners to better
communicate the support they can provide to aid the MVMA. A
primary goal for the MDVIC is to help to recruit and increase
participation in, attendance at, and support for, the MVMA
meetings which will increase the meetings’ value for both
veterinarians and industry partners.
The MDVIC will have the opportunity
to provide representatives to the various MVMA committees, and
contributions to its publications. It will also have a
non-voting position on the MVMA Board of Directors. This will
create a platform for industry to offer constructive comments to
the MVMA on their programs and activities.
The inaugural MDVIC Board of
Directors members are: Joe Hollendoner (President), Sydney
Schilling (Vice President), Jaine Ackley (Secretary), Mary Ellen
Reek (Treasurer), Jane Collins, Laurel Kennedy, Tony Carrassai,
Dawn Harman, Cindy Ward, and Mark McClean. Attending Industry
members include (but are not limited to): Novartis (member),
Boehringer-Ingelheim (member), Webster Veterinary Supply,
SimonDR, Antech Diagnostics (member), Merial (member), Elanco,
Evolve Medical Imaging, Hills Pet Nutrition, Roadrunner
Pharmacy, AXA Advisors, IDEXX Laboratories, Nutramax Labs,
Butler-Schein Animal Health, Summit Vet Pharm, Intervet/Schering
Plough, LiteCure (member), MWI (member), and Midwest Veterinary
Supply. Industry membership applications are now being accepted.
The MVMA is happy to welcome the
MDVIC, and looks forward to the benefits of the new partnership. |
