Dr. Vitulli and Dan Direnfeld from Caring Hands Animal Hospital will be speaking about their extensive experience in creating a business plan for starting a new practice. This lunch lecture will focus on the factors needed to consider when finding an appropriate location and demographic for opening a practice. They will use their Florida practice as a case study about creating a business plan for a new business venture. The information they provide will be useful for any graduate student who is interested in entrepreneurship. VBMA members will receive business certificate credit for this event. We will provide lunch to those in attendance.  This event is sponsored by the GPSAFC and is open to the entire Cornell graduate community.
