The 2022 Indepet Conference was held last week at the Sea World Resort on the Gold Coast, Queensland, and the industry was out in force.
Running over four days from 22-26 May, the theme of the Conference was ‘Stronger Together’ and featured speakers from across the industry, a supplier trade exhibition, and the chance to mingle and network with a sprinkling of fun events throughout the week.
Here are some highlights from day two of the Indepet Conference:
