The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) will organise the second edition of the India Diamond Week from October 23 to 25 in Mumbai.

The diamond week will be held on the sidelines of World Diamond Council’s AGM and World Federation of Diamond Bourses’ meet at Mumbai.
 
The three-day event will see participation by diamond manufacturers/exhibitors and over 100 buyers are expected to visit the event from key international diamond markets.

GJEPC Chairman Pramod Agrawal said, “This Diamond Week is distinct, as it would witness key stakeholders of the Global Diamond trade this year with GJEPC hosting the World Diamond Council’s AGM in Mumbai around the same time. We are overwhelmed with the response in this edition with over 100 buyers confirmed to visit Mumbai for the Diamond Week from all major key diamond markets of the world.”
 
GJEPC  Vice Chairman Colin Shah added: “The India Diamond Week is aimed at creating an annual trading platform increasing communication between diamantaires and promoting business globally. We believe that the event would further establish and strengthen new sourcing relationships.”
 
GJEPC organised the first edition of India Diamond Week in November 2017. The GJEPC is the apex body of the gems & jewellery industry with over 600 exporters and was set up by the Government in 1966.
