In December this year GPD will land in the Caribbean region with GPD Cuba. This learning event will be organized in conjunction with Cuba glass exhibition on December 6th – 7th in Havana.
Regional GPD events are a great way to inform and educate industry leaders and designers alike as to what the most recent glass technology can offer. They are also a great opportunity for you – glass industry professionals from all around the world to meet and discuss business together with local specialists who were unable to attend the GPD Finland event.
Among other things GPD Cuba program features high level speakers from Cuban Chamber of commerce and government authorities, Architect Keith Boswell from SOM speaking about “Architectural glass in emerging economies” and various other technical presentations.
