Networking
SVEF/SVEIF provide wonderful forums to hear from peers regarding hot topics, corporate best practices, case studies and ad hoc surveys. Members have a networking infrastructure in place for consult with both strategic and day-to-day challenges.
Alliances with Other Coalitions
As an affiliate of the Pacific Business Group on Health (PBGH) SVEF members gain access to quality, data, and purchasing projects initiated through that respected coalition.
