EXCLUSIVE DENTAL EVENT

PROUD 2020 SPONSORS

Peer-to-peer networking, new product opportunities and vendor partner strategizing – that is what the NDC Dental Forum is all about! We invite you to join us in Denver, Colorado at the Gaylord Rockies Resort on January 27 – 29, 2020 to experience the Power of Partnership.

The Forum event is exclusive to NDC dental dealer members and takes place in January to help jump-start your growth in the new year. Over the course of two and a half days, you will have the opportunity to meet with over 65 manufacturer companies, learn from industry leaders and network with new business partners.

On Monday afternoon, we kick off with the Opening General Session and Keynote Speaker, where you will hear from NDC staff and dental industry thought-leader, Kevin Henry, to discuss the future of dentistry. Our annual Awards Dinner celebration will take place Monday evening, where we recognize and honor our top-performing partners from the previous year.

Tuesday and Wednesday will consist of merchandise face-to-face meetings, with equipment face-to-face meetings happening only on Tuesday. The Product & Services Showcase will serve as a break from the rotations on Tuesday afternoon. We’re especially excited about a fun event we’re hosting on Tuesday evening – a charity cornhole event benefitting Dental Lifeline Network. Everyone can support the cause through friendly competition and camaraderie before your evening plans.

We look forward to seeing you in January. Thank you for committing to invest in the Power of Partnership 2020!
