Dental Tribune Middle East & Africa Edition | May-June 2015 47ids 2015 DTI Media Lounge Where movers and shakers in the dental market meet ByDentalTribuneInternational C OLOGNE, Germany: Over the past week, the International Dental Show (IDS) drew thousands of people from all over the world to Cologne. As an IDS tradition, Dental Tribune International (DTI) invited its partners to a number of cocktail receptions to the DTI Media Lounge. Dur- ing the receptions, attendees received business updates on international markets and had the opportunity to connect with their peers and leaders from the dental industry. The traditional Russian Night was celebrated at the DTI booth on the first day of IDS. The event was organised in collabora- tion with the Russian Dental Association, the Moscow Den- tal University, and Dentalexpo. Ilya Brodetski, General Director of Dentalexpo, provided some insights into the Russia dental market and its importance for the global dental industry. Cur- rently, there are 85,000 dentists and 25,000 dental technicians in Russia. The market has a yearly supply turnover of US$ 1 billion. On the second day of IDS, DTI hosted the CHANNEL3 Night, which was orgainsed together with Exit Strategies, for the first time. About 80 key opinion lead- ers from 15 countries gathered on Wednesday at DTI’s ME- DIA Lounge for their annual meeting. As part of the event, Harvard professor Myron Nev- ins received the first annual PI Brånemark Award. The number three in CHANNEL3 signifies the three channels of sales in the dental industry: sales by dealer, direct sales and sales resulting from the work of key opinion leaders. The group consists of leaders from all three areas. On 12 March, industry partners of DTI gathered for the DDS WORLD and Chinese Night in Hall 4.2. In 2014, DTI launched its Digital Dentistry Show, the first exhibition to focus solely on digital products and applications for dentistry, in Milan in Italy as part of International Expodental. The show will travel around the world and be present in all ma- jor dental markets. Participants of the night were informed that the next DDS World show will take place in Athens from 22 to 24 May 2015 and will be or- ganised in collaboration with OMNIPRESS. Further shows in 2015 are planned in Moscow, Budapest, Istanbul, Shanghai and New York. The event on Wednesday was also attended by representatives of the Chinese Stomatological Association. The Brazilian Night on 13 March attracted many people. The event was a joint project of DTI and Associação Paulista de Ci- rurgiões-Dentistas (APCD), the São Paulo association of dental surgeons, with which DTI en- tered into an international me- dia agreement in 2013. Under the contract, DTI’s today trade show newspaper became the of- ficial and exclusive publication at the Congresso Internacional de Odontologia de São Paulo (CIOSP), one of the leading con- gresses worldwide. CHANNEL3 Night was attened by almost 100 guests.
