The Société Nationale des Groupements Techniques Vétérinaires (SNGTV) and its Buiatric College are delighted to invite you to the European Buiatric Congress to be held in Nantes, France on Thursday May 15^th and Friday 16^th, 2025. The ECBHM Annual General Meeting will be held during this congress. Furthermore, the annual Residents’ Workshop will be held in Nantes just prior to the congress.

For more than 50 years, SNGTV has represented practising veterinarians in the livestock sector and has played a major role in the continuing education of bovine practitioners. Each year, SNGTV organises a congress that brings together over 800 participants (practitioners, academics and students) to address important topics in bovine practice and discuss new scientific developments, with a practical mindset. For the past 3 years, an International buiatric day (held in english) took place during this congress with invited speakers coming from all over the world.

For the 2025 edition, the international part will be extended to 2 days. It will host keynotes, oral and poster presentations that will be selected by an international scientific committee comprising ECBHM board members.

As mentioned above, prior to the congress, the Veterinary School of Nantes (Oniris) will organize a 2,5 day workshop for ECBHM Residents around pathology and food hygiene, including lectures and practical sessions as usual. The Veterinary School is close to the congress venue, making transportation easy.

The Cité des congrès of Nantes will offer you a very pleasant and collegial atmosphere and the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with internationally renowned researchers and experts but also practitioners deeply involved in buiatric practice and to network with relevant stakeholders from all over Europe. 

During your stay, you will also be able to enjoy the local culture and hospitality during the social programme.

We are looking forward to seeing you all in Nantes!

With our best regards.

Philippe Camuset (Diplomate ECBHM, President of the organizing committee), Raphaël Guatteo, (Head of the scientific committee, Diplomate ECBHM, Past President ECBHM)
