Sponsorship plays a vital role in the success of the 15th International Equine Colic Research Symposium, hosted by The Foundation for the Horse.
Colic remains one of the most significant health challenges affecting horses worldwide. This premier symposium brings together both emerging and internationally recognized researchers, clinicians, and educators to share the latest scientific discoveries, challenge current thinking, and establish future research priorities that advance the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of equine colic.
While The Foundation for the Horse is proud to host this important event, its success depends on the support of visionary industry partners. Sponsorship enables us to deliver a world-class educational experience by enhancing attendee resources, fostering meaningful collaboration among leading experts, and creating an environment where groundbreaking ideas can flourish. The knowledge and findings generated during the symposium extend far beyond the meeting itself, benefiting equine veterinarians and horse owners around the world through widespread dissemination across the veterinary and equine communities.
Since its inception in the 1980s, the International Equine Colic Research Symposium has consistently attracted more than 100+ attendees from around the globe. Held every three years, the symposium alternates between Europe, where it is hosted by the British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA), and North America, where it is hosted by The Foundation for the Horse (formerly the AAEP Foundation).
