Glass Performance Days (GPD)

The Glass Performance Days (GPD) brings together the best minds in the glass industry. We are a conference dedicated to developing the global glass industry and advancing glass technology through education, forging stronger networks, and thought leadership. We have organized industry-leading conferences in China, Brazil, and Finland every two years. Glass Performance Days connects the entire glass industry supply chain from researchers to architects, designers, structural engineers, glass producers, processors, equipment providers and end-users. This is how we do it: - by collecting and distributing current and future-oriented information on glass through establishing stimulating cooperation between research institutes, universities and the entire glass industry - by providing meeting environments for establishing new contacts and the forming of networks among glass professionals - by offering a platform for future innovations and their commercialization - by exploring new applications for glass as a versatile, safe and competitive material GPD is founded on the principles of transparency, trust and objectivity. Practical business aspects underlie every realistic endeavor. The conference is therefore geared to create true competitive advantage. This sets the stage for sustainable business dealings. GPD recognizes the fact that the true value of information is revealed only when it is shared. Through offering a platform to share new research and exciting ideas, the links in the glass industry supply chain benefit both upstream and downstream. In the closed and collaborative GPD forum, new innovations are tried and tested before being put into practice. This is how we push the industry forward.
