Nominate in the Global Gypsum Awards 2021 (nominations end 1 February 2021)

The 20th Global Gypsum Conference and Exhibition will take place at the Estoril Congress Centre in October 2021. The event will be co-located with the Global Insulation Conference and Exhibition, after a survey of participants in both industries which was strongly positive towards co-location. Delegates with different interests will be identified by their delegate badges. All of the combined conference social events (Welcome Party, Gala Dinner, Farewell Reception) will be held jointly. After joining together for a unified welcome and for VIP presentations, the audience will be able to choose its preferred topic, since each conference will have its own dedicated lecture theatre, with parallel sessions for gypsum and for insulation. Lunch and break times are likely to be staggered.

The conference venue is particularly large and well-appointed, and will allow delegates and exhibitors plenty of space in which to meet and do business.

At the announcement of new dates for the Global Gypsum Conference, we asked: How do you feel about the announcement of the joint Global Gypsum Conference, in Estoril, Lisbon, Portugal in 2021?
