Registration is now open for the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance 2024 Summer Conference, taking place June 3-6 in Montreal, Quebec, at Le Westin Montréal. The conference’s theme, “Start Your Engines | On Track for Success,” is a nod to the Canadian Grand Prix, which will take place in the conference’s host city following the conclusion of the event.
“Known for its beautiful architecture, including the historical Notre-Dame Basilica, Montréal is celebrated as a stunning destination to visit,” says Florica Vlad, FGIA events manager. “In-person participants will have the opportunity to register for a UL lab tour and explore the city during a fun scavenger hunt, all while connecting with industry peers.”
