KEYNOTES & DINNER: From Idea to Impact: Tales of Veterinary Innovation Sponsored by Chewy Health
Information
The inaugural VIS was in 2017, making VIS 2025 the 9th summit. Let's take a brief look together at examples of changes and innovations that have occurred related to past VIS topics and within the exponentially changing world in which we live and "strive to thrive.
1. VIS was designed to encourage provocative thought and networking among innovative thought leaders.
2. Change occurs rapidly today with or without our involvement or even our blessing, so we need to lead change for positive impact.
3. We tend to overestimate the rate of immediate change and underestimate long-term change, so it is beneficial to pause briefly to see changes.
4. The VIS is a stimulus for innovation in the veterinary profession.

Innovation doesn’t come from certainty—it comes from conviction. From betting on people, making the simple better, taking big leaps without knowing the landing spot, defining winning, and staying in the game when people, challenges & the playbook says you’re done.
