In mid-March, the digital event We Are Jewelery

It promises to be a fair, but also a show, almost a festival. All digital. We Are Jewelery is the name of the event which, without replacing Vicenzaoro canceled due to covid, promises an update on the world of jewelery. The digital event is scheduled for 23 March and, according to Ieg, the organizing company, is the starting point of a tailor-made roadmap for the return to trade fairs in the presence of the sector. Vicenzaoro in a mixed edition with the physical and digital presence of companies and visitors, in fact, is scheduled for mid-September.

We Are Jewelery, on the other hand, will be followed with very high definition videos, in tune with the experiences produced in the world of high fashion. Over 30 Jewelery Frames are planned, set paintings interpreted by models who will present the new collections of companies and brands of excellence of Made in Italy to an audience of connected buyers from all over the world.

The idea was developed by Ieg in collaboration with the art director Beppe Angiolini, the most famous Italian fashion buyer. In any case, We Are Jewelery will not have a link with Vicenza, but with Arezzo, a district specialized in gold processing. The setting of the connections, in fact, was designed to highlight the monumental and tourist aspects of the Tuscan city.

Kelly Xie, from China with love

The exuberant imagination of Chinese designer Kelly Xie and her high jewelry.

It is a small Maison, still little known in Europe, but it produces an exceptional high jewelry. This is Kelly Xie Fine Jewelry, a brand founded in 2012 in Shanghai, China. Even in Europe it should have the notoriety it deserves. The founder, Kelly Xie, learned jewelry making from a famous local master, with a focus on traditional Chinese painting. As is typical of the Chinese, she has worked hard to improve her skills. The training lasted ten years.

Her repertoire, she explains, ranges from traditional to free-style and “exudes uninhibited imagination.” She uses many colored stones and her jewels are, in fact, almost the transposition of certain traditional paintings, but reworked with greater vivacity. These three-dimensional paintings in gold and precious stones are also capable of telling stories, largely inspired by the world of nature. It goes without saying that the imagination in drawing would not hold up if it were not supported by an extraordinary ability to translate ideas into luxurious jewels. It is no coincidence that long ago some jewels selected by the same designer were successfully sold at the Hong Kong Poly Jewelry auction at a high price. While Kelly Xie is still (briefly) unknown to us, in China she is already popular with show business stars and celebrities. One more reason to get to know her work.

The ex Baselworld (perhaps) returns in June

While Vicenzaoro has canceled the March date to postpone it to September, the ex Baselworld is aiming for June. But with many question marks. The MCH Group, the company that organizes the Basel event, which was canceled after the forfeit of the most important brands and cornered by the covid, are back on track and and now plan the heir of Baselworld for June. In reality, the event will no longer be called Baselworld, but HourUniverse, and hopes to attract at least the world of watchmaking that does not participate in Watches & Wonders (ex SIHH), a Geneva event dedicated to the top of the watch market and which was scheduled from 8 to 12 April, but which has in turn been canceled. HourUniverse was originally scheduled in Basel, alongside Watches & Wonders, but the persistence of the epidemic convinced the organizers of the former Baselworld to postpone the event.

At the moment the new date has not yet been determined, but the idea is to set the appointment for HourUniverse in mid-June, although it is not excluded that yet another postponement will occur. On the other hand, the Reed Jewelry Group has also decided to postpone the JCK Las Vegas. The last Baselworld took place in 2019, amidst abandonments and controversy after the farewell of Rolex, Tudor, Patek Philippe, Chanel and Chopard: the big names had announced the idea of creating their own event, but no decision followed .

Vicenzaoro postponed to September

Vicenzaoro slips again. The largest Italian fair dedicated to jewelry, in fact, will be held in September. This was decided by Ieg, the company that organizes the event at Fiera Vicenza. Last October, in a moment of optimism, Italian Exhibition Group had set for March 12-16 (therefore three months after the classic January appointment) the exhibition dedicated to jewelry. Now, however, there is a stop. In fact, the pandemic is still too widespread to allow Vicenzaoro to run smoothly. In March, however, there will be an unprecedented digital edition.

A long press release from Ieg, therefore, has decided on new dates for all the fairs organized by the company. “By harmonizing the calendar of B2B appointments in the gold and jewelery sector of which Ieg holds the sole direction in Italy”, reads the press release, “Vicenzaoro will be held in Vicenza from 10 to 14 September 2021, together with T. Gold, the international exhibition for machinery and technologies for jewelery, and Vo Vintage, a marketplace for vintage and prestigious watchmaking and jewelery. Oroarezzo will reopen the Arezzo exhibition center from 12 to 15 June 2021. To anticipate the return of the international community to the fair, will be WE ARE Jewelery, on 23 March, an unprecedented B2B digital format designed to promote the new jewelery collections to buyers connected from all over the world “.

Homi returns and spells out

Published on December 22, 2020

The fairs are back, timidly. Thanks to the vaccine, covid is a little less scary, even if it will continue to affect the activities of 2021. Thus, after Vicenzaoro (12-16 March), is coming Homi, the Milanese event largely dedicated to the world of bijoux. The main events in the fashion accessories sector (Homi Fashion & Jewels Exhibition, Micam Milano, Mipel, TheOne Milano, Lineapelle) will take place in synergy on the same dates to create an exhibition hub. Translated: they will optimize resources and visits. Homi Fashion & Jewels Exhibition, dedicated to fashion accessories, bijoux and trendy jewelery, will open on Saturday 20 March until Monday 22 March 2021.

In addition to the applause for the courage of the organizers of Fiera Milano (the company that manages the exhibition spaces), there is a funny aspect: Homi will dedicate this appointment to the theme of luck. Or, rather, of bad luck: an interesting topic, given the trend of 2020. The amulets, in short, will be the center of attention with the hashtag #BELUCKY. On the other hand, in fact, jewels were born just as good luck charms. We hope they are effective.

Antonio Papini, not just gold

The gold and diamond jewels by Antonio Papini, Tuscan jewelery ♦

Classic gold: chains, large, in yellow or pink gold, and sometimes white. And, perhaps, diamonds and ebony: Antonio Papini is a company that has completed half a century of life and has grown a little away from the classic areas where jewelry has developed in Italy. The headquarters, in fact, are in Empoli, a town near Florence. Since 1987, Antonio Papini specified, the company has developed the production activity marked by the 995 FI factory pusher. Just to say that behind the brand there is a well-established company in the panorama of Italian jewelery. Its production is mainly addressed to export.

No flight of fancy for these jewels that enclose the simple but effective style for those who want to wear a gold jewel, visibly gold. But also with the addition of personality, as in the bracelet in which the segments of the jewel twist and the metal is worked inside in a sort of network, while the elements are linked by rings with pavé diamonds. The big chains, however, are never trivial. They can please those who have always loved this kind of jewelry, but also successful rappers.

Vicenzaoro postponed to March

Published on October 29, 2020

V for virus, V for Vicenzaoro, which slips by a couple of months, in the hope that the second wave of the evil covid-19 has subsided. An inevitable decision: too many risks to keep the January date of the largest jewelry fair in Europe (thanks also to the disappearance of Baselworld).

Il brand di VicenzaOro

Vicenzaoro, therefore, returns from 12 to 16 March 2021, again at the Vicenza Fair, in conjunction with T. Gold. It is a date that can also be good for companies: after all, until a couple of years ago, Baselworld was held at this time of the year. Ieg, the organizing company, is confident that international mobility can be resumed in March in Europe, but also from the United States, Japan, Russia, the Middle East and the Far East. In short, a return to normality, albeit probably with anti-contagion security measures still in force.

The choice, explains a press release, was shared with companies and associations and responds to the need to guarantee all companies the widest international visibility and the best matching opportunities with buyers in strategic markets, thanks also to the contribution of Ice (the Italian state agency for the promotion abroad and the internationalization of Italian companies).

The first edition of the year of Vicenzaoro as always will welcome the international audience with previews and new collections, latest trends and an exhibition offer that ranges from semi-finished products to finished products, from gems to packaging, from pearls to solutions for visual merchandising up to to the world of watchmaking, as well as dozens of moments of discussion to talk about sustainability, innovation and trends. At the same time also T. Gold, the exhibition of technologies and machinery for goldsmith production.

Voice did it, a doubt remains

Published on September 14, 2020

news

It is easy to imagine the president of Ieg (the company that organizes Vicenzaoro), Lorenzo Cagnoni, last spring in the Hamlet version, while reciting the famous monologue: to be or not to be? That is the question. That is: to be Vicenzaoro, and to propose again one of the most important appointments in the world for jewelry, or not to be and cancel the appointment, as other trade fairs have done? With some courage the company has chosen to be a third way: Voice.

Defined as a jewelry summit, Voice has proved to be first of all an attempt to restart the sector, requested first of all by Italian companies. Being able to set up Voice, despite the health emergency is still a ball and chain for the business, is already a success. Of course, the organizers stressed, we shouldn’t expect it to be was the usual Vicenzaoro with the only difference in the masks to wear. And while many big brands have chosen to be present, others, especially those that sell a lot abroad, have deserted the appointment. It was predictable.

But, in any case, the official balance sheet indicates 370 companies present, a hundred speakers in the over 600 business matching meetings organized by Ieg (one third online), with a dense schedule of appointments, seminars, conferences and talk shows. In the virtual buyers rooms, created to make up for the reduced presence of foreign buyers, over 200 commercial exchanges took place. The contents generated in the pavilions have had over 3.5 million views on digital channels. Voice, in fact, blended the physical presence at the fair with online channels. A sober, but not spartan, staging has kept the balance with the atmosphere of challenge to the stop caused by the coronavirus.

In short, it went well. But the Hamletic dilemma will arise again shortly, given that the next appointment is called, for now, Vicenzaoro January. To be or not to be? Is it possible to propose a fair like the one in previous years if the pandemic has not completely ceased or, at least, has also been reduced from a psychological point of view? Or will Ieg be induced to re-propose the Voice format? The one held in Vicenza was been the only event dedicated to jewelery from February onwards in the world. It was a risk, but we can say that the game was won. With a little out of wheezing, though.

The politics of Italian jewelry

Published on September 13, 2020

“Dear minister, it is time to get busy. Indeed, if the government does not know where to start, we will suggest some ideas ”. This is how we can summarize the appeal launched by the professional and entrepreneurial categories of the jewelry world during Voice – Vicenzaoro International Community Event, the Italian Exhibition Group event inaugurated at the Vicenza Fair (370 companies present). The requests are addressed (in the foreseen digital link) to Luigi Di Maio, Minister of Foreign Affairs and exponent of the 5Stelle movement by Cna Orafi Nazionale, Confartigianato Orafi, Confimi Industria Goldsmith and Argentiera Category, Confindustria Federorafi, Federpreziosi Confcommercio, Assocoral.

Free trade
The premise: in the goldsmith sector, as explained by associations, duties and non-tariff barriers prevent the direct marketing of Italian products to areas that represent over 60% of world consumption. Notwithstanding, therefore, the need to strongly relaunch the initiatives at EU level for trade policies aimed at the regulated liberalization of world trade through free trade agreements, the sector considers it important that, in the context of the Pact for Export, some specificities. Here are the initiatives needed for jewelers.

• The ratification of Italy’s accession to the so-called Vienna Convention on Precious Metals to facilitate the international trade in objects in precious metals while ensuring adequate consumer protection. The delay in the parliamentary approval process does not allow our companies to use the facilities provided within countries that represent 30% of our exports.
• The strengthening of the preventive and ex-post intervention capacities by the anti-counterfeiting help desks on some strategic markets (USA, Turkey, China, UAE, Russia …) and the activation of help desks for an initial support of companies in disputes with foreign operators.
• The strengthening of agreements with large-scale distribution (in the US and Japan, but not only) which represented, in the pre-Covid phase, a success factor in sectoral incremental business policies.
• The activation through agreements with individual countries, of fast-lines or fast-tracks to allow, in compliance with certain bilateral health protocols, the reduction of the restrictions provided for entry into certain countries. This is to promote the arrival of foreign operators in Italy and facilitate, also through our diplomatic offices, the presence of Italian operators in strategic countries for our exports
• Enhancement of actions to support trade fairs in the sector as well as, again in the B2B area, the facilitation of access for small and medium-sized enterprises to the Maeci / Ice Fiera Smart 365 program as well as promotion and support for less smart companies in the fruition of the agreements started with the main international e-commerce platforms.
• The need to accompany the transversal communication of the Italian brand being set up by Maeci, with a sectoral campaign to have a more surgical impact on international trade.

Sustainability and origin of raw materials
The precious sector is one of the most advanced sectors in the field of circular economy and in the recovery and reuse of objects and used metals / materials. Not only that: for over 20 years in the sector policies have been adopted for the traceability of the no-conflict origin of diamonds with the certification of the origin of diamonds (the Kimberley Process) and with the adoption of international regulations also for the origin of precious metals.
Furthermore, from January 2021, the European regulation for due diligence will come into force with the aim of guaranteeing the conflict-free origin of gold. Regarding this, jewelers consider it important to underline some requests.
• Italy strives to extend traceability measures to other competitive global areas (China and India) and to harmonize the parts governed by individual member states (sanctions, thresholds, controls …) at a European level.
• We strongly support Italy’s candidacy as a country of reference at EU level for the issuance of Kimberley Process certifications to propose a European regulation on the correct distinction between natural and artificial diamonds.
• Eliminate customs blocks entering China of Mediterranean Red Coral products (Corallium Rubrum), true Made in Italy, and which are not subject to Cites restrictions.

Tax simplification
The world of gold and jewelery is the subject of special and necessary attention in terms of fiscal controls and procedures created to protect operators and consumers. Sometimes, however, these risk burdening and hindering the production and distribution of goods due to overlapping rules that penalize the competition of our companies. Goldsmith companies consider simplification important.
• Extend the Reverse Charge regime to the jewelery production and marketing chain. Introduce a new text of the law referred to in article 17 co. 5 of Presidential Decree 633/72 in order to introduce the reverse charge regime to all commercial steps within the industrial chain, thus solving many interpretative problems and creating obstacles to tax fraud.
• Amend the methods of application of art. 128, U.C. OF T.U.L.P.S. Administrative or precautionary detention in transactions between operators in the sector represents an obstacle to the circulation of goods without this bringing benefits in terms of traceability. In the BtoB exchange, the operator inherits an operation which is already fully traced in itself and which benefits from an extensive fiscal accounting documentation (transport document / invoice) in some cases, the sale and related transactions between operators could be the subject of other transactions between other subjects belonging to the goldsmith chain, adding, in fact, several times, the administrative or precautionary arrest.

Training
Over the next few years, the Italian goldsmith sector will witness the exit from the world of work of several thousand technical professionals due to their age limit. To date, the generational change of these skills is not guaranteed with the risk of impoverishing a unique wealth of knowledge.
• Re-launch vocational training courses through appropriate information and awareness campaigns (students, parents, teachers).
• Strengthen and finance the presence of higher education projects with particular regard to quality productions in artistic high schools, technical and professional institutes.
• Promote the generational relay in an appropriate way for the best management of knowledge transfer in the company.

Voice Vicenzaoro starts

Published on September 11, 2020

Bet won or bet lost? Voice Vicenzaoro (Saturday 12 to Monday 14 September) is, in practice, the only major event related to jewelry (It’s to be checked Istanbul Jewelry Show in October) that is not stopped or transformed with a digital cosmetics due to covid. Voice Vicenzaoro, however, does not want to be a lame edition of the fairs dedicated to jewelry. Ieg, the company that organizes Vicenzaoro, has in fact studied a somewhat different form. But how different?

With many talk shows and seminars, obviously also online, and with exhibitors who have adapted to more sober exhibition spaces. The planned events are organized in several areas of the Vicenza exhibition center and an innovative integration with the most sophisticated television direction systems and digital equipment will allow the live online of all talks and seminars, also visible in streaming on YouTube, Instagram, FB for to allow its continuation in every part of the world.

Voice is above all a summit, specified the International Exhposition Group, which has the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ice (export body), Confindustria Federorafi, Confartigianato, Cna, Apindustria, Confcommercio, Assocoral and, at international, Cibjo, the World Confederation of Jewelry.

There are 350 companies on the field and, although some big names in jewelry present at the “normal” editions are missing, it already seems a success. Not to mention that outside, in Vicenza, Vioff was confirmed, which includes a series of collateral events. In short, a lot of luxury to exorcise the covid.

Jewelery 2021? It will be fluid

Published on September 9, 2020

news

What will jewelry be like in the next two years? As always Vicenzaoro, which this year is replaced by the Voice format, Trendvision Jewelery + Forecasting, the first independent Italian Exhibition Group Observatory specialized in forecasts for the sector, tries to answer. This year the appointment is organized as part of the TV Talk with the title Predictions 2021-22. Emerging Phenomena, Panorama and Forecast 2022. The appointment is scheduled for Monday 14 September at 2.30 pm in the Voice space at Fiera Vicenza, and will also be streamed on the website and on the event’s YouTube and Facebook profiles.

In summary, we can already anticipate the result of the analysis: the trends of the coming years are cultural blending, spirituality and gender fluid. The jewel of the post-Covid restart will be inspired by the craftsmanship of the traditional techniques of India, Europe and South America revisited by young emerging designers. Jewelry will also have the ambition to instill a new spirituality in the wearer, an experience of transcendence that manifests itself through talismans and amulets, an expression of a holistic approach to life. In short, farewell technology, we look to the Middle Ages. At the same time, the jewels will be unisex: they will overcome the gender divisions, proposing themselves to the single individual and aligning themselves with his understanding of life, rejecting any forced and oppressive characterization. Women who will wear the heavy chains chosen by men so far? Or males who will delight in delicate rose gold jewelry? In a scenario necessarily impacted by the global pandemic, Trendvision reveals, the revolutions triggered by #MeToo and the movement for awareness on climate change are pushing towards ethics and sustainability, values shared by Millennials and Gen Z.

The next trend is also the use of innovative techniques, games of contrasts between enamels, colored natural stones, glass and ceramics. A reality that is continuous contamination, fusion, synergy and dialogue, in which there is the awareness that the recovery will have to enhance all parts of the whole, through a virtuous and respectful fusion.

In short, all topics at the center of the meeting scheduled on the interactive stage set up in the heart of Hall 7, The Stage of Voice, with Paola De Luca, Founder and Creative Director of Trendvision Jewelery + Forecasting, and David Brough, Founder and Editor in Chief of Jewelery Outlook, event presenters and moderators during talk-show moments. To follow, the presentation of The Jewelery Trendbook 2022+.

GemGèneve has also been canceled

Published on August 31, 2020

Another jewelry fair falls on the battlefield at the covid. It is GemGèneve, the event that in recent years took place in May and which for 2020 was scheduled from 1 to 4 November, obviously in Geneva. Surprisingly, Anthony DeMarco, a journalist specializing in the jewelry sector, reported it on Forbes.

The one scheduled for November would be the third edition of GemGèneve, which had already registered a good number of subscriptions. But the situation of uncertainty caused by the epidemic prompted organizers Ronny Totah and Thomas Faerber to cancel the date: travel restrictions and health precautions are certainly not preparatory to a successful fair. Unlike what happened for Baselworld, however, the organizers have made it known that all 145 expected exhibitors will be reimbursed (companies that participate in a fair pay the cost of the exhibition space in advance). A decision that causes significant losses to the organizers but which, for sure, leaves a good impression on the companies that had to participate in GemGèneve. The only event related to jewelry, therefore, remains Voice VicenzaOro (12-14 September).

Published on July 29, 2020

With small steps, but with a loud Voice. The stages of approach foreseen by Ieg to Voice, the alternative event (12 to 14 September 2020) in Vicenzaoro, cintempate the schedule of the scheduled meetings: it is no coincidence that Voice is the acronym of Vicenzaoro International Community Event, an innovative format that Italian Exhibition Group organizes with the involvement of 300 companies present and training events. Here, then, are the main events in the spaces of the Vicenza Fair.

Here’s what Voice-Vicenzaoro will be like

Published on July 22, 2020

news

The Voice was one of Frank Sinatra’s nicknames. Now, instead, in Italy the Voice is Michela Amenduni, Ieg’s product marketing & communication manager Jewelery & Fashion Division. That is, the woman on whom the burden and honor of making Voice known (Vicenza, 12-14 September), the cousin event of Vicenzaoro September, the fair that was canceled due to the well-known global health emergency. Although Italian Exhibition Group, the company that organizes Vicenzaoro, has tried to organize it until the last, this year it was impossible to re-propose the classic fair dedicated to jewelry, which weighs about 13% of the turnover of Ieg (a company that is listed on the Stock Exchange ). Here, then, is the idea of a different format, but no less interesting for this. “In fact, in the future he could also walk with his own legs,” the manager anticipates.

Michela Amenduni, product marketing & communication manager Jewellery & Fashion Division di Ieg

How the idea of Voice was born.
“We have collected requests from companies and sector associations, but also from many buyers, especially from Germany. During the lockdown, when only Italy had stopped, the perception from abroad was that everything was over, that businesses had disappeared. But no, Italian companies are alive and active. But it was not possible to propose Vicenzaoro with half the world blocked because of the virus. Too many question marks”.

The format.
“The idea is Voice, an acronym for Vicenzaoro International Community Event, but it is also an evocative name: we give voice to the jewelry sector. A summit. The Basel and Hong Kong fairs have been canceled, Voice for businesses is the first occasion of the year, after VicenzaOro January. Three days full of opportunities for meetings, including moments of training in collaboration with universities, debates, followed in streaming on social media. But also business. With the help of the ICE there will also be buyers, in particular we are focused on those from the Schengen area “.

The staging.
“Impossible to recreate the same environment of Vicenzaoro. Participating companies will have booths of 15 square meters available, which can double and which, of course, are customizable. We will also try to recreate a color code that relates to the division into homogeneous areas of activity, as is the case for Vicenzaoro. And a lot of space available to comply with health security measures “.

Exhibitors and business.
“300 exhibitors have already confirmed their presence, but the number could go up again, perhaps up to 400. For them there is the Buyer Virtual Room project. How does it work? It is a platform (I-Mop Ieg Meeting Omnichannel Platform) that has already been tested in the Rimini tourism fair, and already used for GoldItaly in Arezzo. For the virtual meetings some rooms will be set up “.

Who is there, who is not there.
«To help exhibitors we are collaborating with Alo, a company that creates 3D videos: in the rooms dedicated to remote connections with foreign buyers you will have the opportunity to project videos of the jewels with a much better performance. This can be useful for brands that sell a lot abroad and who have not yet decided whether to participate in Voice.

The future.
«The Voice format could support Vicenzaoro in the future. But don’t replace it. For example, Voice could become an event that walks with its own legs, a hybrid format, more compact and versatile, which could also be exported to the world, from Shanghai to Panama. We’ll see”.

Vicenzaoro has been suspended. Long live Vicenzaoro. Which, however, in September is called Voice. If the health emergency led Ieg (the company that organizes Vicenzaoro) to transform the format of the event by also changing the name, the companies in the sector have a strong need to show their production to buyers, that the appointment is called Vicenzaoro o Voice doesn’t matter. This is what can be deduced from the announcement that, in July, the companies that have chosen to exhibit their jewels at Voice-Vicenzaoro International Community Event (12 to 14 September) exceed 300.

About 300 companies means a very limited drop of about 15% compared to last year’s attendance. And taking into account that the major fairs, not only of jewelery, have been postponed to next year, number of registration to Voice is a success, perhaps unexpected. In short, Vicenzaoro, ops, Voice has a strong attraction. The names that have already reserved their space also testify to this.

For example, Damiani, Crivelli, Leo Pizzo, Mirco Visconti, Fope, Roberto Coin, Pesavento, Karizia, Chrysos, Ronco, Chiampesan, Riccardo Orsato, Alessi Domenico, Silvex, Daveri Vicenza, Unoaerre, Giordini, Richline, Fratelli Chini, Quadrifoglio, Amen, Annamaria Cammilli, Rosato, Pianegonda, Brosway, Rue des Milles. And there will also be companies from Campania, specialists in the processing of corals and cameos, such as Aucella, Bruno Mazza, Coscia, De Simone, Idea Coral, Mattia Mazza, Enzo Liverino.

VicenzaOro September canceled, in its place is Voice

Published on June 23, 2020

news

VicenzaOro September is officially canceled. He won the covid-19. Instead, Voice is born, a new format. The great Italian jewelery fair suffered the same fate as Couture and Baselworld, who had to surrender to the health emergency. Of course, in Italy the pandemic has almost disappeared, but in other parts of the world it is raging and this, according to the organizers, would have compromised the September meeting in Vicenza. Italian Exhibition Group, the company that organizes the event, therefore decided to postpone everything to the January appointment.

As a partial alternative, Ieg proposes the Voice format, an acronym for Vicenzaoro International Community Event, between Saturday 12 and Monday 14 September 2020. The name of the event alludes, in fact, to the idea of giving voice to the protagonists of the jewelery chain. Obviously it is not the same as VicenzaOro, even if Voice will have the patronage of a series of institutions: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ice Agency (organization of the State to encourage exports), Confindustria Federorafi, Confartigianato, Cna, Apindustria, Confcommercio , Assocoral and, internationally, Cibjo, the world jewelry confederation.

Voice, in the intentions, will be a meeting opportunity to discuss the state of the industry and the next challenges with opinion leaders. Topics: sustainability, trend & design, innovation & technology with institutional moments and technical talks.

The events will unfold over several areas of the Vicenza Fair, including television and live directing systems of all talks and seminars, also visible in streaming on Youtube, Instagram, Facebook. However, the part dedicated to the product is not missing: the most courageous companies in the supply chain, who challenge the fear of contagion, will present the new collections. The Buyer Virtual Room project will be activated for foreign buyers who cannot be present: meetings scheduled by the exhibitors themselves through the I-Mop Ieg Meeting Omnichannel Platform. The Voice event will also live outside the Vicenza Fair, in the city, with Vioff, this time titled The new golden way.

La passata edizione di International Jewellery London

Another fair dedicated to jewelry has been canceled: Reed Exhibitions has announced that International Jewelery London, scheduled at Alexandra Palace from 13 to 15 September, will not be held due to the covid-19 pandemic. “Following UK government guidelines and comprehensive discussions with our customers, public health authorities and partner organisations, we do not believe that we are in a position to host a large scale gathering of the community in September without compromising the key valuable elements of IJL ”explains a note from the organizer. International Jewelery London has been held for 65 years.

The cancellation of International Jewelery London turns on the headlights on the last major international jewelery fair left on the program: Vicenzaoro, scheduled for September 5 to 9. A few days ago the organizing company, Italian Exhibition Group, confirmed Vicenzaoro together with a series of security measures to avoid contagions. But, of course, much will also depend on general health conditions, which now seem to have improved.
