Since December 2011 the Glass Supper has been the industry leaders pre-selected option for coming together to cross-check annual results, to meet high net worth business partners and activate plans formulated to make next year, their best year. The Glass Supper is proudly brought to you by IGS Magazine. To get you in the mood, here is an extended video from The Glass Supper 2018, which took place at the world renowned Roundhouse in Camden, London.
The Glass Supper signifies the year end and has become established as “The Industry Event of The Year“ – James O’Callaghan EO’C Engineers, Tate Modern December 2017.
This year, 2019, we revisit Battersea Power Station Development and talk to the architects who introduced us to this “Jewel in the Crown” project back in 2014 when the Glass Supper was held in Merchant Taylors Hall. The very same architects return to update this years guests on the progress made over the 5 year interim period (2014 – 2019). They are joined by the Main Contractor who provides checks and balances to keep us all on track. Has the project remained true to the original plan or have there been significant changes? If so what are these changes? How have they affected the original architectural intent for each given phase of the project? What is their vision for 2020? The truth is revealed by those with authority, in Guildhall on Tuesday 10th December.
The Glass Supper is opened by Professor Martha Thorne who provides insight on architectural education, what do young architects take away with them when they graduate and embark on their own individual journey? Let’s hope they’ve been heated up with a heightened sense of knowledge about glass, heated to the point that a fire burns inside them for the unlimited possibilities this wonderful material holds. The presentations are brought to a close by the electrifying presence of Richard van Hooijdonk. Richard is a one-off, a glorious anomaly who returns to tread the Glass Supper podium following insurmountable industry pressure.
To come together under one roof for one day, with one purpose, to hold the right conversation with the right people in the right place, to talk with individuals responsible for shaping our world, these are the moments we live for – THIS IS NOT A DREAM!
