LEIPZIG, Germany: On Monday, 9 December, Dental Tribune International (DTI) celebrated another milestone in its history in the dental publishing business. The date marked the tenth anniversary of the company’s foundation in 2003.
“What started about 20 years ago in Germany has developed into an international dental and educational network over the past decade. Although the very first Dental Tribune edition was published in 1893, the real globalisation of the business ultimately started with the involvement of our publishing partners around the world. Today, we are able to produce unique local content with a truly global perspective,” said DTI’s CEO Torsten Oemus.
Currently, DTI offers more than 130 print publications and multiple websites that reach over 650,000 dentists in more than 90 countries in 27 languages. Since its foundation in 2003, the publisher has become the official media partner of a number of major events dedicated to the dental industry, such as the International Dental Show, the Greater New York Dental Meeting, the annual congress of the FDI World Dental Federation and IDEM Singapore.
In addition to its print and online publications, the group can look back on its projects in dental education and its flagship e-learning platform, Dental Tribune Study Club, in particular. Since its foundation in 2009, the sophisticated Web-based continuing-education portal has become an essential part of DTI’s product portfolio and serves more than 180,000 members worldwide. Today, DTI also provides continuing medical education through its clinical master’s programme, Tribune CME, which offers comprehensive training in aesthetics, orthodontics and implantology, among other fields of dentistry.
With its headquarters based in Leipzig, Germany, the publisher today has a total of 34 licence partners covering over 90 dental markets, including China, Brazil, South Africa, the US and the Middle East. Only recently, a new partner in Israel joined the publishing group. Talks for future projects in Sweden and Ukraine are currently underway.
The group is looking forward to celebrating the anniversary with its partners at its Annual Publishers’ Meeting, which will be held in Turin in July of next year.
