My good friend Dr. Marty Jablow is a mover and a shaker in the dental industry. Over the years he's been involved with advising and consulting on all kinds of dental industry companies and products. We sort of 'grew up together' in the world of doctors helping companies bring things to market. The guy knows the business side of the industry inside and out. A couple of years ago he talked to me about a concept he had. It was an event that would bring funding companies together with dental companies and startups that were looking for venture capital investments. The result was the Dental VIP Summit that took place in Chicago this year. For the next step in this, he's ratcheting it up a notch. This time he's pairing that concept along with bringing in doctors that are looking on working on the business side of dentistry like he and I do.
The result is the Dental KOL Boot Camp and Dental Innovation Day that's being held in West Palm Beach, Florida on October 10-11.
If you have a company that is looking to grow your brand and/or looking for a way to create funding for your endeavor, this is the place to be.
If you are a doctor looking to work with companies or trying to get a lecturing career off the ground, this event is for you as well. Marty has asked me to come and speak as part of the event and I'm humbled by the lineup he has made me a part of. You can read all of the info about this stellar event below:
