What to expect

Starting a dental practice comes with a hundred decisions, from financing and real estate to build-out, equipment, technology, and legal. Join us for a relaxed, drop-in Q&A mixer where you can get straight answers from experts across the entire startup journey, with no panel and no presentations.

Drop in anytime between 5:30 and 8:30 PM for complimentary food and drinks, then move around the room at your own pace. Instead of sitting through a panel, you will have real conversations with people who help practices launch every day.

You will be able to talk with experts in:

  • Financing: Robert Malandruccolo, Bank of America
  • Construction and build-out: Pat Black, Precision Contracting
  • Legal: Sean Simensky, Partner at RivkinRadler Attorneys at Law
  • Real estate: Evan Gassman, CARR Realty
  • Architecture and design: Jing Xie, Architect
  • Practice planning and support: Deanna Zost, Ideal Practices
  • Equipment and technology: BencoDental team — Rachel Finkle, Alex Cushing, Roman Yampolsky, Mark Kuchta, Connor McCabe
  • Technology: Mike Nelson, Archy

This is casual, practical, and focused on your situation. Ask one quick question or stay awhile and map out your next steps. You will leave with clearer answers, stronger connections, and more confidence about what to do next.
