The independent hardware distributor Carl F Groupco has become the first sponsor of the 2024 Glazing Summit. The conference is the UK’s premier event for business leaders within the glazing industry and related sectors. It is set to take place at Edgbaston Stadium and Conference Centre, Birmingham, on 17 October 2024.
“We are delighted to be sponsoring the 2024 Glazing Summit,” said Clare White, marketing manager at Carl F Groupco. “It is a prestigious conference that is respected and supported across the entire fenestration industry.”
Representatives of Carl F Groupco have attended every Glazing Summit since the event’s inception in 2018. The next summit will be the fourth consecutive year in which the company has sponsored the event. This loyalty reflects the event’s calibre, Clare added.
“It’s invaluable to get the insight of fellow industry leaders on the topics that matter,” continued Clare. “It gives us a true picture of the industry, its challenges and opportunities – and how we, as a supplier, can help.”
The agenda for next year’s conference is set to include debate on the burning issues facing the industry. This includes supply chain challenges, labour shortages and threats from upcoming regulatory changes.
The next (2024) Glazing Summit will be the first since the conference was acquired by the Mark Allen Group. New to the helm but certainly no stranger to the glazing market – having worked within the industry for more than 14 years of her career – Sarah Knight, business development manager for Mark Allen Group, is handling sponsorship sales for the Glazing Summit.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled that the Carl F Groupco team has chosen to continue its support of the Glazing Summit,” said Sarah. “By doing so, they are significantly boosting awareness of an already market-leading brand, thanks to the additional opportunities that the Mark Allen Group is bringing to the event. We look forward to working with the Carl F Groupco team.”
Carl F Groupco is one of the industry’s longest-established names. The Carl F Groupco team supplies an extensive range of window and door hardware and has long-standing relationships with European manufacturers.
“Our brand is renowned for its proactive approach and for taking the lead on the topics that matter,” a representative of the brand explained. “As such, our ongoing support of the Glazing Summit is a perfect partnership.”
