ORLANDO, Fla., July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- When the NAVC opens the doors to its 40th anniversary VMX: Veterinary Meeting & Expo, January 14, 2023, in Orlando, FL, attendees will find themselves immersed in 1980's nostalgia complete with a pop culture theme, events, entertainment and historically-low, throwback registration pricing of $125 – mirroring the cost when the first VMX registration opened in 1983. Most important, the education and excellence VMX is known for – industry-leading scientific sessions and life-changing innovations – will be on full display.

Since its first conference, VMX has grown to be the world's largest and most comprehensive global veterinary education conference. As the first veterinary conference of the year, thousands of veterinary professionals and industry leaders gather from around the world to learn and experience the latest advances in veterinary medicine that are helping animals of all species live longer, better quality lives. Presented by the NAVC, the global leader in continuing education (CE) for veterinary professionals, VMX will feature sessions and hands-on workshops led by world-renowned animal healthcare experts. VMX 2023 will be held January 14-18, 2023, at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) and everywhere virtually. Click here for VMX 2023 registration information.

"The last 40 years have ushered in some of the most exciting advances in veterinary medicine. Many of which have been introduced and taught at VMX," said NAVC CEO Gene O'Neill. "We are pleased to mark our 40th anniversary of hosting the veterinary industry's leading annual conference by making it financially easier for veterinary professionals to attend VMX, meet their education requirements, network with colleagues – and have a lot of fun in the process. Our mission is to help the entire veterinary community thrive and we are delighted to support them by offering all the value of VMX 2023 at the price of the inaugural VMX." 

The throwback registration price of $125 is for all attendees who register through October 31, 2022. After that, prices will increase but remain 40% lower than VMX's customary early bird pricing: $495 for veterinarians, $295 for veterinary nurses/technicians and practice managers. Veterinary students, as always, attend for free.

"Veterinary medicine continues to evolve and transform how we care for animals,'' said Dana Varble, NAVC Chief Veterinary Officer. "Each year I attend VMX, I learn something that helps me become a better veterinarian and provide the best care to my patients. The future holds even more possibilities and I can't wait to see what life-changing innovations are to come."

From companion animals and exotics, to farm animals and aquatics, VMX 2023 will offer more than 800 hours of Continuing Education sessions, hands-on workshops and Masterclasses at the in person event in Orlando, and more than 280 virtual sessions, which will be available through March 15, 2023.
