Why become a Summit Alumnus?

In today’s fast-paced business environment it can be hard to find the resources that allow us to look at ‘the big picture.’ Time and pressure often do not allow us to re-think and create new and improved solutions to age-old problems.

The National Alumni Summit for Urban Animal Strategies (NASUAS) gives you the tools you need to bring practical solutions to your organization and inspire industry stakeholders to work collaboratively to create a healthier community for pets and people.

The NASUAS attracts some of the brightest minds in the North American companion animal industry. Your attendance allows you to participate in executive level discussions, hear world-class speakers and network with others who face similar challenges.

By being part of the alumni group, you become part of the solution. This results in significant benefits for you, as an individual, for your organization and for your community.

What does this mean for you?

As an Alumnus, you have access to a proprietary ‘Alumni Only’ section of the tsuas.com website that provides a wealth of information, including:

Directory: Published to encourage and facilitate continued dialogue and is for exclusive use of alumni in good standing. Includes the names and contact information for more than 160 thought leaders from all four sectors of the companion animal industry – animal control/legislation, animal health/wellness, animal welfare and animal services.

Resources: Designed to facilitate information sharing and the implementation of ideas and concepts discussed at the NASUAS. This information is updated and added to on a regular basis, so be sure to check it out every few weeks to learn what’s new!

Current resources include:

·  A summary of the most recent North American Urban Animal Survey.

·  Presentations from various presenters and industry experts.

·  Recommended links, books and other resources.

·  Industry affiliations and community stakeholder news.

·  News and views from other industry thought leaders.

Discounts: Special consideration is given to the Alumni group, for such things as event registration and subscriptions to the annual survey. For more information click here.

To maintain your Alumni status, it is essential that you attend at least one NASUAS every two years. If you cannot attend, then you must apply for special consideration to maintain your status or have another alumnus to nominate you as a delegate.
