“GLASS – THE IN/VISIBLE IMPACT”

“GLASS – THE IN/VISIBLE IMPACT”

The Glass Performance Days (GPD), a leading forum for the global glass industry, has officially announced its next conference. GPD 2025 will take place from June 10 to 12, 2025, at the Nokia Arena in Tampere, Finland.

This year’s theme, “GLASS – THE IN/VISIBLE IMPACT“, emphasizes glass’s role in innovation and sustainability. Over three days, more than 120 presentations will cover key topics such as circularity, façade engineering, window technologies, and smart glazing.

GPD conferences have been held in China, Brazil, and Finland. In Finland, the event takes place every two years, bringing together professionals from across the glass sector.

The most recent edition, GPD 2023, was successfully hosted in Tampere from June 14 to 16, 2023, featuring workshops and a dedicated glass exhibition.

Since 2017, GPD has also hosted Step Change, a start-ups event aimed at accelerating advancements in the glass industry. This event will also be present this year, showcasing industry start-ups and disruptive ideas and technologies.

Additionally, the Theme Park by GPD offers online activities that recognize speakers and contributors to industry research featured in the GPD Finland 2021 proceedings book.

Partnered with glasstec, the leading glass trade fair, GPD aims to foster networking, knowledge transfer, and long-term business relationships while promoting sustainability, innovation through education and industry development.
