IF WE WERE STARTING VETERINARY MEDICINE TODAY...Would we build the profession the same way?

19 Nov 2026
Exhibitor Showcase 2

What if we could redesign veterinary medicine from the ground up?

In this thought-provoking discussion, the 2026 UK Bright Minds Award winners—recognized as the year's Industry Influencer, Practice Game Changer, and Healthy Practice Champion—will challenge conventional thinking and explore how they would build the profession if they were starting today.

Drawing on their experiences as leaders, innovators, and advocates, the panelists will examine everything from education and workforce development to technology, wellbeing, leadership, and practice operations. Together, they will answer some of the profession's toughest questions while imagining a future-ready veterinary profession designed to help teams, patients, clients, and communities thrive.
