This week we wrap up the conversations at the exocad Insights 2024 meeting from Mallorca, Spain. Elvis and Barb can not thank exocad enough for this amazing opportunity to showcase some many AMAZING people in our industry. Things were learned, friends were made, laptops were returned, and memories were made. Thank you exocad!

First up is dental technician that is working on business development at Nobel Biocare, Chuck Genco. Chuck is 35 year veteran in various dental labs. He's now with Nobel Biocare helping them create a solution based digital workflow with a emphasis on "time to teeth". He talks about his journey, his role at Nobel, and what some interesting things they are working on.

Then we talk to two friends in Spain, from Syria, working in Sweden. Yousef Ibrahim is a ceramist. Maher Al Hanfeish is the cad/cam technician. After leaving Syria, they both found their way to the same lab in Sweden and have been friends ever since. They talk about their journey into the lab, getting to Sweden, and their daily life in a lab.

As a special BONUS, we talk to the Chair of the Foundation for Dental Laboratory Technology, Jen Ludwig and the Executive Director, Lindsey Rowan. They both come on to talk about the upcoming Race for the Future happening on September 15th, 2024 in Fort Worth, Texas.
