NEW YORK, NY, USA: The traditional President’s Luncheon at the Greater New York Dental Meeting (GNYDM), which honors presidents and directors of dental organizations as well as deans of dental schools worldwide, welcomed the well-known anchor of Good Morning America, George Stephanopoulos, as the celebrity speaker this year.

Stephanopoulos, who was a senior advisor in the Clinton administration, explained the changing, contradictory and polarized political landscape of the country, saying that he had never seen anything like this in his lifetime.

The ABC host, who has a masterful command of political trends and polls, explained how the initially favorite Republican candidates, such as Donald Trump, suddenly lost all the advantage to newcomers on the scene. Stephanopoulos conceded that Trump decided not run for president after signing a $60 million contract with ABC.

In one of the highlights of the event, Torsten Oemus, president of Dental Tribune International (DTI), conferred an award on Dr. John Halikias, general manager of the Greater New York Dental Meeting.

Oemus said that DTI was extremely proud to work as a partner of the GNYDM, a dental show that is now the largest in the United States and is evolving continuously in order to offer dentists from around the world the best possible education and the most innovative products.

Oemus explained that the daily newspaper, TODAY, and the high-quality lectures offered by the Dental Tribune Study Club Symposia are two samples of how both organizations work together to bring the best of the best to attendees to the GNYDM.
