| New Year, Reflections on Where We Started... The month of October marks the start of the Knight Dental Group fiscal year. This year, we not only celebrate a great 2012, but we also celebrate our company's 40th Anniversary and the exciting history that got us to this point. For the last several years, we have kicked off our new year with our annual Strategic Planning Meeting for our shareholders, managers, sales team, product line managers, and a few other key personnel. In addition to our usual business meeting, this year we held a celebration for all of our staff, family, founders and several long-term clients. We're excited to share some of that with you in this edition of our newsletter as we thank you for being such a strong support of our past, present and bright future! |
