Exhibit hall hours are 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. today through Tuesday and 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday. ‘Special German Show’ in exhibit hall As today’s opening day of the four- day exhibit hall reveals, there’s also alwayssomethingnewontheGNYDM exhibition floor. In recognition of the 100th anni- versary of the Association of German Dental Manufacturers, dental tech- nology from Germany is being high- lighted in a designated area of the hall, anchored at booth No. 1313 and stretching across four aisles nearby. Encompassing nearly 10,000 square feet, the “German Pavilion” features more than 40 German exhib- itors with products and services cov- ering all of dentistry and dental technology. A highlight is an interactive, futur- istic science lab on innovation and research that provides insight into state-of-the-art laboratory technolo- gies and practice. The German show is presented by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (booth No. 1313).
