Its members include 91 veterinary associations, representing more than 145,000 individual veterinarians globally. The WSAVA’s primary purpose is reflected in its mission to ‘foster the exchange of scientific information between individual veterinarians and veterinary organizations’ or - to put it more simply - ‘to promote global veterinary continuous education (CE).’ The WSAVA works towards its goal in a number of ways but primarily through its annual flagship event, WSAVA World Congress. WSAVA World Congress WSAVA World Congress, taking place this year in from 16-19 September in Cape Town, South Africa and in Bangkok Thailand from 15-18 May 2015, attracts large numbers of veterinarians, veterinary nurses and technicians from around the world. Not only do registrants have the opportunity to learn from leading experts on all aspects of small animal practice, but they also benefit from a unique opportunity to share experience, knowledge and friendship with colleagues from around the world. In order to encourage excellence in small animal practice, the WSAVA, with the support of sponsoring companies, also presents a number of awards at World Congress to veterinarians chosen by an international panel of experts. Each gives a lecture on their specialist subject during Congress. Congress proceedings are subsequently made available online to member associations, veterinary schools, libraries and individuals, providing a valuable source of the most up to date global knowledge. In 2009 the governing body of the WSAVA, the Assembly, voted to change the established Congress format, in which it was run by a local host committee from a member association and to, instead, engage a professional congress organizer. Kenes International was duly appointed to this role and the first World Congress it has organized is this year’s event in Cape Town. The Assembly also voted to rotate Congress on a three year cycle among three regions, member associations of which are invited to submit bids. These are: • The Americas • Europe, the Middle East and Africa • Asia and Oceania Continuous Education In addition to World Congress, the WSAVA is now in the 22nd year of running an imaginative series of CE courses using world-renowned speakers for veterinarians in areas where companion animal practice is relatively less developed. Overseen by the WSAVA CE Committee, the programme began in the ‘emerging countries’ of Eastern Europe and has now been expanded to include countries in many other regions of the world, including the Balkan States, South East Asia, China, India and Latin America. 14 www.wsava2015.com SPONSORSHIP AND EXHIBITION PROSPECTUS The Always Amazing Thai Experience 40th WORLD SMALL ANIMAL VETERINARY ASSOCIATION CONGRESS Bangkok, Thailand | 15-18 May, 2015 ABOUT WSAVA WSAVA Management The day-to-day management of the WSAVA’s affairs is overseen by its Executive Board, headed by its President with input from three key Committees: • Financial Advisory Committee - which sets budgets and oversees the WSAVA’s financial management • Leadership and Nomination Committee - which assists in leadership identification and succession planning • Congress Steering Committee - which is responsible for the future development of World Congress Its veterinary-focused work is focused in a number of key areas, also overseen by a Committee and includes: • Animal Wellness and Welfare • Vaccination Guidelines Development • Global Pain Management The WSAVA Convention for the Protection of Companion Animals contains a set of legislative proposals which have been endorsed by the Assembly. Many member associations are signatories, which means that they have agreed to the basic common standard of attitude and practice and that they will use their influence and knowledge to educate their community about animals and to increase awareness of all issues affecting animal welfare. A WSAVA Animal Welfare Symposium is always included in the programme of World Congress. Benefits to members The WSAVA works constantly to enhance its outreach to member associations. It publishes news in four languages on its website; in a bi-monthly e-bulletin and in the Journal of Small Animal Practice, its official scientific journal. It is active on social media and partners with Brief Media to produce a digital global edition of Clinician’s Brief, long the most highly ranked journal for companion animal practitioners in North America. This is free to all members. The WSAVA is playing an increasingly important role in enhancing veterinary care around the world. The areas it covers and the scope of the practical initiatives it is undertaking are ambitious and expanding constantly. What drives its members is a deeply-felt desire to create a strong global community of veterinarians who can help, support and learn from each other. If it can achieve this, it can help to create a single global voice for veterinarians - a voice which will help to make the world a better place for animals - and for humans. The phrase ‘I am a WSAVA veterinarian’ will mean something special indeed. 15 www.wsava2015.com SPONSORSHIP AND EXHIBITION PROSPECTUS The Always Amazing Thai Experience 40th WORLD SMALL ANIMAL VETERINARY ASSOCIATION CONGRESS Bangkok, Thailand | 15-18 May, 2015 TOP 10 THINGS TO DO IN BANGKOK Bangkok began as a small trading center and port community on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River some 200 years ago.

This will be made available to delegates and also promoted to non-delegates for example via the WSAVA Congress website, extending the reach of the congress to all Veterinary professionals worldwide. We would like to explore a few interesting opportunities with you: We can capture any session of your choice to be included as a part of this project. The webcasting of a session requires careful work and attention to detail; if you prefer we will handle all speaker communications & authorizations and we allow speakers to review / edit the content of their session including the possibility of hiding slides containing sensitive data. You do not have to organize and pay for a separate webcasting team. Our goal is to optimize the learning experience for the viewers of the webcast. In most circumstances, pharmaceutical companies who choose to webcast their symposia do so for internal online educational purposes. For a more promotional approach we can link to your symposium webcast from the congress website. This allows the many visitors to the Congress website to see your session online. The WSAVA endorses this opportunity because satellite webcasting income helps to partly recoup the webcasting of the scientific sessions. Option 1: $7,500 You will get the webcast of your session that is quality controlled after post production. The file can be hosted on our video server for 2 years (included in the price) but can also be hosted on a server of your choice. Promoting the webcast is in your hands. Option 2: $10,000 Option 1 and in addition we will promote your webcast with a banner on the right side on the congress website (http:// wsava.kenes.com//). Option 3: $12,500 Option 1 +2 and in addition we will promote your webcast on the ‘landing page’ where you will see an overview of all scientific webcasts. An example of a landing page is: http://webcasts.kenes.com/epa/. You will receive usage data on a very detailed level. Live Broadcast The cost for live broadcasting of your session is $4.000 excluding the 1 MBit line that is needed. The set up for the interactive Q&A is $1,700. » The player software can be branded. We can add a trade mark on the player. » The webcasts will need to be approved by the speakers and we can add you in this process. We also handle the speaker agreements before your session starts. Sometimes speakers want certain slide with preliminary data hidden or they do not want to be seen in the video. We take care of this. Before we send out the speaker agreements we will send the draft to you for approval For more information/inquiries regarding webcasting please contact Freddy Arnauts, Ph.D. – e-mail: farnauts@kenes.com 27 www.wsava2015.com SPONSORSHIP AND EXHIBITION PROSPECTUS The Always Amazing Thai Experience 40th WORLD SMALL ANIMAL VETERINARY ASSOCIATION CONGRESS Bangkok, Thailand | 15-18 May, 2015 EXHIBITION A commercial/technical Exhibition will be held at the 40th WSAVA Annual Congress 2014 Venue.
