“Glass Futures encapsulates all the aspirations that the awards represent – innovation, design talent, a determination to ensure the glass industry will flourish.
“I’m looking forward to welcoming all our sponsors to a wonderful event which brings all the key figures in the glass sector together and it’s a pleasure to have Glass Futures alongside us.”
Glass Futures Board Director Richard Katz added: “We’re honoured and privileged to continue our association with Glass Focus, this time as the headline sponsor, and be a key part of this showcase for our industry.
“Glass Futures was established to take our industry into new territory by driving changes in technology and culture to facilitate growth and create a sustainable future for the glass industry.
