RAPAPORT... The 21st edition of the International Jewellery & Watch Show (JWS) was opened in Abu Dhabi at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre by Sheikh Mohamed Bin Hamdan Bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The event, which runs from March 14 to 18, has more than 175 exhibitors from 19 countries and it features a Luxury Gift Show, and the first ever Emirati Jewellery Designer Awards (EBDA'A).
On the opening of the show, Sheikh Mohamed said, "The JWS has developed into a significant event on both a local and global level. Since its inception more than 20 years ago, the show has successfully been able to position itself as strong pillar event, contributing widely to the development of the jewelry industry in the region."
"The launch of the first edition of the EBDA'A Awards during JWS demonstrates the efforts aimed at stimulating the emerging talents of non-professional designers in the UAE, enriching the industry with fresh, creative and innovative talents. This industry is witnessing a great demand regionally and globally," he added.
