Lauren Hayes, Scientific Affairs Manager, Royal Canin, who helped organise the summit said, “The support I received as I made the decision to move from clinical practice into industry from Vets: stay, go, diversify was invaluable during my career and it is a privilege to work with them now, and other organisations across the globe, to bring the global veterinary careers summit to veterinary professionals worldwide. Boasting some incredible speakers from all areas of industry, it is going to be a fantastic event, packed with tangible career tips, advice and networking opportunities. The summit will provide invaluable opportunities in the wake of the coronavirus to revaluate veterinary business and industry, ways of working and show how you can enhance the underpinning skills that make a veterinary degree such a transferrable qualification to dozens of different industries”.
