The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) will organize a Trends Seminar about Jewellery powered by TRENDVISION Jewellery + Forecasting on February 25 and 26, 2014 in Mumbai.

TRENDVISION Jewellery + Forecasting, an internationally renowned consulting firm based in Italy and also an Independent division of Fiera di Vicenza (Vicenza Fair) has been selected to conduct this prestigious Seminar cum Workshop.
According to latest export figures, Indian G&J export from Jan-Dec2013 to US stands at US$ 4793.44 Million and that to Europe is US$ 3307.63 Million. This offers a huge business opportunity and therefore emerges the need to constantly enhance and upgrade India’s jewelry design prowess. This initiative is a part of GJEPC’s continuous effort to train and equip the Indian Manufacturers with the latest in global trends and consumer preferences.
Speaking about this initiative, Mr. Vipul Shah, Chairman, GJEPC said, “Indian products have without doubt created a niche for itself due to its flair of combining contemporary sensibilities with traditional aesthetics. US & Europe remain one of the major markets for Indian exports & understanding the trends prevalent in these countries , becomes imperative. Extensive knowledge of the market & high sensitivity towards consumer interest is essential in our trade, therefore, through the TRENDVISION Jewellery + Forecasting seminar, GJEPC hopes to achieve Design sensibilities and strategic awareness to further penetrate into these key markets.”
“I would like to thank the Council for having forwarded the opportunity to sharing our knowledge & research in India. At TRENDVISION Jewellery + Forecasting we believe that education is important for the development of any industry. Therefore, through the TRENDVISION Jewellery + Forecasting seminar we hope to provide the Indian Gem & Jewellery the strategic direction that is required at this point in time to compete at the global level” said Ms. Paolo De Luca, Creative Director & Forecaster, TRENDVISION Jewellery + Forecasting.
Following the success of 2011 when this seminar had received acceptance by the members, the Council will organize this structured two day seminar & workshop session for the industry.
