GemGenève increases the number of exhibitors





The news of the next edition of GemGenève: the number of exhibitors rises by 22% ♦ ︎

While VicenzaOro is still underway and while Baselworld warms up its engines to prepare for its toughest appointment, the GemGenève backoffice is at work. Many wondered whether the first edition of the gem and jewelery trade show, organized in May 2018, would be followed by a second one. The answer is yes: the second edition of GemGenève will be held from 9 to 12 May 2019 at the Geneva Palaexpo.

The new appointment also has a theme: Find and Feel, to emphasize the importance of direct experience even in a period dominated by the digital.

GemGenève has been an idea of two industry veterans, Thomas Faerber and Ronny Totah, who operate in Geneva. The event was also an initiative in controversy with Baselworld, a fair in the crosshairs of many jewelry operators because of the high costs required for participation. It has had a good success, with about 4300 visitors, 50% non-Swiss (including the journalists of gioiellis.com).
GemGenève, in fact, is a formula that has convinced many. Jewelers, antique dealers and precious stones merchants find themselves in a smaller space than large fairs, but very specialized. And so the number of exhibitors for 2019 is 22% increase compared to 2018: there are about 180 houses already registered for the new edition, personally selected by Thomas Faerber and Ronny Totah.

The 2019 will also see the continuation of the collaboration of GemGenève with the school of art and design of Geneva, Head, with a special project for students supported by the exhibitor Charles Abouchar. The Designer Showcase, renamed as Designer Vivarium, has been expanded to include new artists not yet known in contemporary international jewelery. Among other things, GemGenève 2019 will take place during the same period of the main jewelery auctions in Geneva, those of Sotheby’s and Christie’s. The premises for a repeat of success are there.
