Speed-networking breakfast This year’s meeting includes a new breakfast networking event designed to help dental professionals connect with exhibitors who may best be able to support their practices. The “Exhibitor Direct Connect” event on Friday, May 5, from 7:30 to 10 a.m., will provide par- ticipants with early access to and dedi- cated time with product and equipment experts. The CDA Presents planning commit- tee is working with SpeedNetworking. com to present the event, which will operate in a speed-networking fashion. As part of the online pre-registration process, attendees will have created SpeedNetworking.com profiles that are used to tailor an itinerary of one-on-one conversations with “smart-matched” exhibitors.

Dentists may have up to 10 meetings each, depending on the total number of registered participants.
