“ Having the diversity in the scientific sessions, field trips, social events and exhibitors was incredibly beneficial to me as a veterinary student as I am just starting my career in the veterinary field and there is still so much that I am eager to learn more about small animal medicine as well as sheep, goats, and alpaca care. ”.

Further details

Industry Exhibition
The industry exhibition will be in the Gold Coast and Southport Rooms at The Star Gold Coast. The exhibition will be the networking hub of the conference, giving delegates the opportunity for direct contact with sponsors and exhibitors alike. Refreshment breaks from Tuesday morning to Friday afternoon will be held in the exhibition, including an exhibition welcome night on Tuesday evening and a happy hour on Wednesday evening.

All delegates receive complimentary access to the industry exhibition as well as automatic entry into the Conference Passport Competition. Make the most of the opportunity to meet and mingle with companies from across Australia, keep up to date with the latest products and services whilst going in the draw to win a variety of prizes.

Exciting New Initiatives
In 2019 we are providing delegates with more opportunities to make meaningful connections with like-minded veterinary colleagues and professionals.

This year we have added an additional social activity on the Wednesday evening, the ‘Eat Street’ Dinner where delegates can relax after a long day of sessions and make new friends in a fun and easy going environment.

We are also holding morning yoga sessions by the pool on the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Rise with the sun and start the day with some self-care.

For the first time ever, we are implementing a program to help grow and bring our ASAV conference community together. This year all attendees have the option to wear a small clip on badge which will help identify them as either a ‘1st Timer’ or an ‘ASAV Connector’. The aim is that our returning delegates (ASAV Connectors) will help to extend a friendly hand to our ‘1st Timers’.
