Dear Addison Biological Laboratory,
Thank you for being part of our MVMA Partner for Progress program. Your sponsorship this past year helped us create meaningful opportunities for our members and provide your company with visibility, access, and connection throughout Missouri’s veterinary community.
As you begin planning for the upcoming year, I wanted to personally invite you to renew your sponsorship for the 2025–2026 cycle, which runs from August through July. You’ll find an enclosed summary that highlights the many ways your support has made an impact—and what you can expect by continuing as a Partner.
The annual MVMA Partners for Progress sponsorships is a base of $5,275 and includes a wide range of benefits such as complimentary convention booths, high-visibility recognition, web and app presence, and more. If you’d like to expand your reach, we continue to offer a $6,675 level, which includes four full-page, full-color ads in the Missouri Veterinary Quarterly—a professional publication sent to over 2,000 veterinary professionals across the state.
The 2026 MVMA Convention is part of this sponsorship year, so if you’d like to be included in the promotions and exhibitor priority access, please let us know soon. We’re happy to offer flexible billing, either in this calendar year or by January 31, 2026.
As always, please feel free to reach out if you’d like to talk through any of the options or have someone else on your team handle the renewal. We’d love to continue working with you in the year ahead.
With appreciation,
Executive Director
Missouri Veterinary Medical Association jrbraun@movma.org
