October 21, 2022 — October 22, 2022
We are happy to announce that following the great success of our first two events, we are organizing the 3rd Urban International Hard and Soft Tissue Regeneration Symposium in Budapest, Hungary, on 21–22t October 2022. The event takes place at the Budapest Congress Center.
The pandemic imposed a halt on traveling and conferences worldwide. Yet, with the conclusions drawn and the precautions we take, we are confident that we can organize our next event in the safest environment in Budapest. We all are craving for meeting each other and share fresh scientific knowledge we learned. Since 2017 we grew to a society, too and we would be pleased to welcome you again. In 2017 we had the honor to receive 560 participants from 45 countries, in 2019 the number of participants had increased to 600 arriving from 44 countries worldwide.
By attending this Symposium participants will have a unique opportunity to explore the most recent scientific findings in the field of hard and soft tissue regeneration and refine their attitude for solving problems. Our line-up of speakers represents an elite group of doctors and academics who will share their profound knowledge and experience, and address questions from the audience. We are convinced that they will, yet again provide the highest level of scientific content.
The event is a great opportunity to exchange views and best practices with dental professionals attending from all around the world. Participants will also have the opportunity to explore our exhibitors’ latest products and services. The Symposium will be held on 21–22 October 2022. On the days before and after the event, i.e., 20th and 23rd October, the participants will have the opportunity to participate in one or more of several high-end hands-on workshops providing a more in-depth experience to a limited number of attendees. The workshops in 2017, were attended by over 160, and in 2019 the number of participants at the workshops had reached 224 and were deemed a great success. We are convinced that this year they will be equally auspicious.
