The aim of the conference is to build a bridge from the manufacturing of the glass fibres to the composite material users covering every intermediate step. For this reason, the International Glass Fiber Symposium is a unique conference worldwide. There will be producers as well as operators to exchange information on the latest developments in the field. Thereby, problems shall be discussed from the producers as well as the operators point-of-view in order to found new cooperation partners, to generate impulses for innovations and to set the basis for a successful network along the value added chain.   The symposium is a consequence of the successful cooperation of ITA and GHI and reflects the core capabilities of both institutes of RWTH Aachen University. The entire process chain beginning with the composition of the glass and ending with the completed FRP-component can be found in both institutes. Because of that, the connection of science and industrial transformation alongside the process chain is secured which is essential for innovation and growth.
