The future of the glass industry and new technologies will be discussed at the ����ş�𳦲��� International Glass Conference that will attract researchers and industry professionals from all around the world, and raise the perception on the central role of glass on sustainable future.

Being the premier glass science and technology platform in Turkey, ����ş�𳦲��� Glass Symposiums have been growing steadily and strongly for the last 33 years and had the pleasure of hosting joint meetings with the International Commission on Glass (ICG), the most reputable not-for-profit Glass Society comprising 33 national organizations in glass science and technology, three times in the past.

����ş�𳦲��� Group organized its first symposium in 1985 simultaneously with the annual meeting of ICG in order to announce the 50th anniversary of the Group to the world based on the principle that “information grows when shared”. Following the 1985 and the 1996 ICG Annual Meetings, 2017 ICG Annual Meeting held in conjunction with the 32nd ����ş�𳦲��� Glass Symposium with 417 participants from 25 countries.

Joint meetings with ICG have empowered ����ş�𳦲��� ����ר�� Symposiums to promote interaction, exchange and cooperation between members of international glass community and members of national academia, and to push forward the development of international glass science and technology.

With the upcoming international glass conference, ����ş�𳦲��� now aims at transforming ����ş�𳦲��� Glass Symposium to a comprehensive International Glass congress. This ambitious goal is a result of ����ş�𳦲��� Group’s sense of responsibility of being the only global player active in all core areas - flat glass, glassware and glass packaging - of glass industry.
