Organised by Informa Markets Jewellery, JGW Singapore will be held from September 27 to 30 at the Singapore Expo. The world’s biggest B2B jewellery event returns to Hong Kong in 2023. “To make JGW’s global return possible, we have to temporarily relocate from our Hong Kong home base to an alternative venue, which has rationalised its border restrictions, resumed large-scale business events and successfully implemented safe-management measures. Singapore fulfils all these requirements and more,” explained David Bondi, senior vice president at Informa Markets in Asia. A global business hub and gateway to Asia, Singapore has relaxed its travel and Covid restrictions, making the city more accessible to international buyers and sellers. Since April 1, quarantine-free entry is granted to fully vaccinated arrivals. JGW Singapore however represents more than a change of venue, noted Bondi.
