Two of Everest’s pioneering leaders, Simon Jarman and Roy Frost, will join panels at this year’s Glazing Summit.

The event, which takes place at Edgbaston Stadium and Conference Centre, Birmingham in just a weeks’ time on Thursday, October 12, is one of the biggest in the fenestration calendar.

More than 400 fabricators, installers and suppliers are set to attend for a day packed full of debate and discussion on the biggest issues currently facing the industry. Each debate will feature a panel of expert speakers and both Simon and Roy will lend their considerable industry experience to proceedings.

Simon, who joins the ‘Fresh Hope on the Skills Crisis’ panel, has 25 years of experience in the glazing industry, including as both CEO and Finance Director of Everest, and as a Non-Executive Director at the GGF. He is the founder of Clever Bean Accounting, helping glazing companies optimise their financial operations and make informed decisions to drive long-term success.

Roy held several senior posts at Everest, including Manufacturing Director, before going on to become CEO of Deceuninck and then leading an acquisition strategy that included GJB and Lister Trade Frames. He will share his industry experience in the ‘Disrupting Sales and Marketing’ panel hosted by industry marketing expert and founder of the Glazing Summit, Andrew Scott.

“The Glazing Summit is all about learning from the experts and both Simon and Roy fall into that category,” commented Andrew. “We have assembled a high calibre line-up of big-name speakers for next week and it’s all set up to be an event that industry leaders can’t afford to miss.”

There are still tickets available for both the Glazing Summit conference and the evening’s Gala Dinner so don’t miss your opportunity to secure your place for a day that will expand your industry knowledge, foster valuable connections, and leave you inspired.
