Swine veterinarians and scientists from around the world will make their way to Minnesota for the 2028 International Pig Veterinary Society (IPVS) Congress hosted in Minneapolis by the University of Minnesota (UMN) College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM).

The IPVS Congress, one of the largest swine veterinarian events for the global pig industry, brings together swine health experts to showcase the latest scientific and technological advances in swine health and production research. This event marks the first time in more than 20 years that the biennial Congress will be held in the United States, which is the third largest pork-producing country.

“We are excited to host the 29th IPVS in Minneapolis and look forward to welcoming congress participants from around the world,” said Dr. Cesar Corzo, chair of the IPVS 2028 organizing committee and the Leman Chair in Swine Health & Productivity at CVM. “Hosting the IPVS congress is a unique opportunity for the swine veterinary community to learn about the new trends in swine health and production as we are committed to building a robust scientific program and providing an enriching environment for congress participants”

The Congress will take place from June 11–14 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. As the No. 2 state in pig production in the U.S. and home to more than 3,000 pig farms and a robust swine health and research program at UMN, Minnesota is a fitting host site for the event.

IPVS 2028 will be organized by the Swine Group at the University of Minnesota in close collaboration with colleagues at the American Association of Swine Veterinarians, academic institutions, swine practitioners and allied industries.

The Swine Group has a long tradition of excellence in research, teaching, and outreach in the field of swine diseases. Composed of more than 10 professors dedicated solely to improving swine health, the group has been responsible for ground-breaking research into the prevention, management, treatment and eradication of diseases and conditions affecting pigs. Hosting this global conference builds on its already 50-year strong foundation providing swine health information through the successful Allen D. Leman Swine Conference.
