BDA has spoken at some of the nation’s largest animal conferences. We have also presented internationally, including at AVEPA in Spain and BSAVA in England.

With topics ranging from material selection to exam room design, and managerial subjects like getting your money's worth during construction and staying in business while remodeling or renovating, BDA offers sessions to help owners and veterinarians make good decisions for their facilities.

The offered Q&A sessions are a great chance to 'ask an architect' questions about animal care facility design, and BDA also hosts a booth at many of the conferences we attend; providing an opportunity for one-on-one meetings with any and all who wish to stop by.
