Year of glass
The International Year of Glass will celebrate the vital role that glass has and will continue to play in society. The two-day launch event at the Palais des Nations in Geneva will feature 30 world-class speakers. The event will be broadcast worldwide on Zoom. The presentations will highlight the latest ideas on how GLASS can help develop a more just and sustainable society, along with the latest scientific and technical breakthroughs. It will also be an important medium for art and its history. Thousands of events are being organised locally. In the Crystal Valley you can look forward to the following:
