William Schwing
Will Schwing, now based in Dallas, has served as KVP International’s head of marketing for the past 7 years, driving exponential growth and guiding the company to be one of the leading manufacturers in animal health. As an award-winning marketer with over 10 years of experience in strategic research and creative agencies in Los Angeles before joining KVP, Will bridges right and left-brain thinking to bring balance to brand and performance marketing. Innovation is a cornerstone of KVP’s marketing department, which Will has structured like a creative agency for KVP’s customers, producing industry-level quality without industry-level fees.
Notably, Will is the Editor of the Bowman Report, a quarterly perspective on the animal health industry that serves as a platform for thought leaders to discuss the most pressing topics facing the veterinary industry. After winning a Vetty Award in 2021, the Bowman Report is back with a special edition on Sustainability.
Will and his wife recently became parents to a beautiful baby girl, much to the dismay of their other firstborn, a Bichon Frise named Charlie.
