Emova E.M.O.V.A (European Management Office for Veterinary Associations) is a division of the Italian non-profit Company E.V. Soc. Cons. a r.l. which is specialized in the organization of Veterinary Medicine events and conferences, in public relations and publications. We are an ideal partner of Scientific Associations for the organization and management of their activities.

Thanks to our 25 years the experience and to the relationship established with the major Veterinary Associations in Italy and abroad we can guarantee full support for both the organization of events and for the management of Veterinary Associations Secretariats.

In 2009 we supported ECVN (European College of Veterinary Neurology) and ESVN (European Society of Veterinary Neurology) in organizing a three-day Symposium in Bologna (Italy) as well as several courses in 2010. In 2009 we supported ECVD (European College of Veterinary Dermatology) in the organization of a Workshop in Dermatopathology that was held in Cremona (Italy). Moreover since 2010 we have been managing the ESVOT (European Society of Veterinary Orthopaedics and Traumatology) Secretariat and in 2010 we fully arranged the WVOC (World Veterinary Orthopaedic Congress) held in Bologna (Italy). The event was a great success and overcame all expectations in terms of the number of delegates present.

Besides E.M.O.V.A. there are two other Divisions managed by E.V. Soc. Cons. a r.l.: Edizioni Veterinarie and Eventi Veterinari.

Edizioni Veterinarie works as scientific publisher and distributor of scientific publications for members at special prices (on-line).

Eventi Veterinari manages the Congresses and training Courses for all the associations linked to ANMVI (National ASSOCIAZIONE NAZIONALE MEDICI VETERINARI ITALIANI Association of Italian Veterinarians) AIVEMP (Italian Association of Public Medicine Veterinarians) SCIVAC (Italian Association of Small Animals Practitioners) SIVAE (Italian Association of Exotic Animals Practitioners) SIVE (Italian Association of Equine Practitioners) SIVAR (Italian Association of Large Animals Practitioners) SIVAL (Italian Association of Laboratory Animals Practitioners) FSA (Animal Health Foundation) ATAV (Association of Veterinary Nurses)
