With over 10,000 expected attendees and over 200 vendors vying for their attention, Seattle is set to be buzzing with activity this coming week. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) was founded in 1863 and last held its annual convention in 1991.

In addition to vendor booths and exhibits there are talks scheduled to discuss veterinary care abroad and the latest advances in medical technology. For the exhibitors it will present good marketing opportunities and a chance to network with other vendors and veterinarians.
