CONVENTION
/k?n'v?n?n/
Derived
from the Latin convenire, meaning „to come together“, a convention is an event
where like-minded individuals gather to connect, share passions, and engage in
related activities.
This is
exactly what we aim to achieve on January 9th, 2027. We invite the entire
dental community to join us at Zurich’s Kraftwerk for the 2nd DASC Convention –
a day dedicated to exchange and innovation.
The day
will kick off with practical workshops and interactive speed dating sessions,
providing an opportunity to dive into the latest techniques and tools in
a hands-on environment. You can choose between attending a workshop alongside
three speed dating sessions or focus on six speed dating sessions for a
concentrated, fast-paced learning experience. These sessions are designed to
equip you with new skills and insights that you can immediately apply in your
practice.
Following
the morning’s interactive sessions, we will move into two main visionary’s
voice lecture sessions, where leading experts will discuss forward-thinking
topics, from the impact of digital technologies in dentistry to the future of
surgical procedures and dental practice management. These lectures aim to provide
you with practical, actionable insights to address the evolving challenges in
the dental field.
To conclude
the day, we invite you to relax and unwind with an evening of entertainment,
featuring a DJ set and live concert at Kraftwerk. It’s the perfect opportunity
to continue the networking activities in a nice atmosphere, where you can build
lasting professional relationships while enjoying music and great company.
The 2nd
DASC Convention is set to redefine dental events, offering a unique blend of
innovation, collaboration, and community. Don’t miss this opportunity to be
part of a transformative day of learning and networking.
NETWORKING
Networking
is at the heart of the 2nd DASC Convention, with numerous opportunities to
connect throughout the day. In the small group settings of the speed dating
sessions and workshops, you’ll collaborate closely with peers, industry and
experts. Informal interactions during lunch and coffee breaks provide the
perfect opportunity to discuss insights and meet new colleagues. As the day
transitions into the evening, enjoy dinner followed by a lively DJ set, live
concert, and party. These events create a fun, relaxed atmosphere to continue
building meaningful professional relationships in a celebratory setting.
WORKSHOPS
– INTERACTIVE SESSION
In the
90-minute workshop sessions, participants have the chance to dive deep into the
subject matter, get their hands dirty, and learn from the masters. But it’s not
just about learning concepts — it’s about doing and refining practical skills.
So, roll up your sleeves and get ready to learn — this is where theory meets
hands-on action!
