Beskrivelse
We are pleased to invite you to the Vetopia Equine Leadership Experience, taking place 11–13 June 2026. This exclusive 1.5-day, in-person event will bring together leaders and emerging leaders from 26 equine clinics across 7 Vetopia countries, dedicated to leadership, organisational sustainability, and the future of equine practice. Led by Dr. Mike Pownall, the programme draws on his distinctive professional background. Before becoming a veterinarian, he worked as a farrier for seven years, building strong expertise in hoof care and lameness, and later earned the Certified Farrier designation from the American Farriers Association. After more than a decade of clinical practice focused on lameness, podiatry, and dentistry, Dr. Pownall now consults on lameness and podiatry cases at McKee-Pownall and contributes to practice management. He is also an internationally recognised speaker on social media and veterinary practice management. This is not a traditional congress, but an intimate leadership retreat designed for meaningful exchange and cross-border collaboration. Do not miss this opportunity to help shape the future of equine leadership and education within Vetopia.
