ISSUE 3, VOL.5
Editor’s desk with Bruce Oxley Positive report Contents June-July 2014
As I write, the dust has just about settled after the 2014 Scottish Dental Show and the initial feedback has been incredibly positive. After two years at Hampden Park, a lot of delegates and exhibitors remarked that it felt like the show had ‘grown up’ and I understand what they meant. Hampden was a fantastic venue, but it had its limitations. The exhibition was split over two halls and the speaker rooms were up two flights of stairs. At Braehead, however, we were able to get more stands than we have ever had, and all in one hall. We were also able to accommodate the speaker rooms in the arena itself. The anecdotal feedback on the venue has been very positive and I am delighted to report we will be heading back to Braehead on 29 and 30 May 2015 for next year’s show. In
consultation with the venue, we have had a few ideas on how to improve the experience, both in terms of the speaker rooms and the exhibition itself. Watch this space for details over the coming weeks and months.
One of the highlights of the show for me was the independence and dentistry debate that was held on the Saturday afternoon. The room was full and those in attendance saw a lively and informative debate that covered most, if not all, of the key issues in the referendum question. Turn to page 34 to read the opening arguments and visit
