The day will wrap up with a panel discussion incorporating updates and insights from governmental agencies.

In the Moving Past Disruption Interactive Track, dental professionals will explore how to treat disruption as a catalyst to pursue significant new opportunities for growth and sustained advantages. Dental professionals will learn how to develop a plan to confront the core disruptions that threaten existing revenues and resources.

Yankee Virtual will continue to provide networking and social opportunities where colleagues and friends can gather to prepare a meal with a top chef, enjoy a sampling of wine, or get the heart pumping with exercise programs. Celebrity appearances are not out of the question.

Another new feature of Yankee Virtual will be its partnership with IgniteDDS University to bring dental professionals the preconference series Re-Ignite Your Practice, which will culminate at Yankee Virtual. Focusing on practice management, finances, and the clinical side of the practice, Re-Ignite Your Practice will prepare dentists and team members to hit the ground running in 2021.
