Submission deadline extended - Call for abstracts for GPD 2027

The deadline for submitting abstracts to GPD 2027 has been extended to 30 November 2026, giving researchers, industry professionals and experts in the international glass community additional time to present their work at the conference.

Following the strong interest generated by the Call for Abstracts, the organisers have decided to extend the submission period to encourage further contributions and give more experts the opportunity to take part in the event.

Researchers and professionals working on new technologies, applications, case studies, research projects or industry developments are invited to submit their abstracts and contribute to the GPD 2027 conference programme.

Key dates

• Extended abstract submission deadline: 30 November 2026
• Notification of abstract acceptance: 29 January 2027
• Paper submission deadline: 15 March 2027
• GPD 2027 conference: 8–10 June 2027

What makes a good abstract?

Abstracts should be clear, concise and relevant to the international glass community. Submissions should include a specific title, communicate the main idea, explain the topic's relevance and highlight the value or novelty of the contribution.

The organisers also remind applicants that abstracts must be free of commercial promotion and written in full sentences rather than bullet points.

International experts to review submissions

The GPD Program Committee brings together experts from industry, design, engineering and academia. Its members will review the submitted abstracts and help shape a balanced and relevant programme for GPD 2027.

With the extended deadline, interested contributors still have an opportunity to share their research, experience and innovations with the international glass community.
