06/15/2025

This Father’s Day, we honor the hardworking dads who rise before the sun, care for their animals like family, and pass down a legacy of strength, compassion, and resilience.

At IVS, we’re proud to support the veterinarians, farmers, and ranchers who wear many hats—including the most important one: Dad. Whether you're in the field, in the clinic, or on the ranch, your dedication inspires us every day.

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at IVS—thank you for your tireless care, strength, and love.

Proud Moment for IVS! We’re thrilled to announce that our president, Alicia Jaime, has been recognized yet again—this time as a panelist for the Fearless Focus Virtual Event hosted by Des Moines Business Record! Alicia’s dedication and leadership in entrepreneurship continue to inspire, and we couldn’t be prouder of her for sharing her journey and experiences with others.

Thank you, Alicia, for representing IVS and championing women in business! 💪✨

Join us Thursday, April 17 from 12-1 p.m. for our first Fearless Focus Virtual Event of the year!

Business Ownership: Women share their entrepreneurship journeys

The 2024 Wells Fargo Impact of Women-Owned Businesses Report showed that women-owned businesses employ almost 12.2 million people and that the number of women-owned businesses between 2019 and 2023 increased at nearly double the rate of those owned by men. But several obstacles still disproportionately affect women business owners, including lack of access to capital, child care challenges and mentoring opportunities. In this discussion, women business owners from across the state will share how they started their businesses, the struggles they’ve faced and what we can do to support entrepreneurs.

PANELISTS:
Alyx Coble-Frakes, CEO, The Agenda.
Alicia Jaime, co-owner and president, International Veterinary Supplies IVS
Gabriella Torres, Clinton, Iowa-based artist and consultant
LaDrina Wilson, founder and CEO, Iman Consulting
