Navigating the complexities of the current fenestration market requires an understanding of how global geopolitical shifts and rapid technological advancements intersect with traditional industry drivers. The updated FGIA market study reflects how these factors continue to affect commercial and residential manufacturers and suppliers.

Our presenter, Rhett Bender, Director at Ducker Carlisle (the company that conducts research on FGIA’s behalf) will discuss these scenarios further, including the war in Iran, trade policies, artificial intelligence (AI) and energy regulations.

Released at the beginning of May, the latest reports include forecasts for the next few years and are intended to help companies plan future business strategies for long-term success.

The session will be moderated by Angela Dickson, FGIA Marketing and Communications Director.

Submit your questions ahead of time during the webinar registration process or during the Q&A segment. Questions will be prioritized based upon submission date and relevance to the reports. For market study-related inquiries, contact Angela at  adickson@FGIAonline.org.
