Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

The Organization's mission is to convene the brightest minds in the veterinary profession and industry together to tackle innovation opportunities that lift up all animal health care segments including caregivers, academia, suppliers, and consumers.

  • The Veterinary Innovation Council (VIC) first convened at the NAVC Conference 2016 in Orlando, Florida in January, 2016. The VIC was formed to act as the first veterinary organization that works industry-wide to focus on positive change and push the envelope for innovative solutions across professional boundaries. The program is currently focused on innovation in the area of Telehealth solutions for veterinary practices. In addition, it gathers data to develop awareness of resources available, success stories and toolkits for implementation, and helps to clarify the legislation around Telehealth. It oversees the Veterinary Entrepreneurship Academy that focuses on partnerships between educational institutions, students, and startups. It also oversees the Veterinary Innovation Summit, a three day conference focused on veterinary innovation. The Summit provides education to interested individuals on innovations impacting the veterinary healthcare community. Part of this event also includes the recognition of selected students for their research and ideas for future innovations to improve animal care. The Summit is typically an annual event, however, VIC held two Summit conferences during the year ended September 30, 2024 due to a delay in the 2023 Summit.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Answered yes

None.

Answered no

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment
  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan
  • 4c · Equity-based compensation arrangement
