The next VECOG (Veterinary Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) meeting is scheduled to take place at the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel on Sunday April 7th, 2019. This meeting draws veterinary oncology allied professionals including medical veterinary oncologists, surgical oncologists, pathologists, and radiation oncologists as well as residents and technicians from Montreal to North Carolina.
This will be the 15th year of the VECOG meeting and we typically attract 90-100 professionals to this half-day meeting. In the last few years the meeting has concentrated on sentinel lymph nodes, personalized medicine, mast cell tumors, melanoma, lymphoma, literature reviews, and transitional cell carcinoma. This year’s meeting theme is Novel Diagnostics and Therapeutics in Veterinary Oncology, with a keynote presentation by Dr. David Solit from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center as well as lectures from key opinion leaders in veterinary medicine including Drs. Matthew Breen, Jeffrey Bryan, and Charles Maitz.
We have routinely heard from the participants that this meeting reminds them of VCS from many years ago as the lectures are highly focused with a smaller audience to allow for much greater open discussion of ideas and controversies. We are firmly committed to the success of this meeting and very proud of its relevancy and longevity. In order to bring in high caliber speakers, we rely entirely on the support of sponsors as VECOG does not charge a membership fee nor is there a fee to attend, since our goal is maximal dissemination of the very latest information. We have also heard previously from our sponsors that they feel the ROI from this meeting is high based on the number of professionals present and the access they have to them is superlative compared to many other sponsorship opportunities. We are pleased to offer the following sponsorship opportunities:
1. Platinum level ($5000) includes booth inside main speaking room, 10 minute presentation at start of meeting, and branding placed on VECOG itinerary
2. Gold level ($3000) includes booth inside main speaking room and 5 minute presentation after one of the breaks
