Colin Shah, chairman, GJEPC, said, “Buyers are gradually getting used to the virtual platforms, and business transactions have been taking place across the Virtual Buyer Seller Meets for loose diamonds and plain gold jewelry organized so far. Even the IIJS Virtual, GJPEC’s flagship show held recently, garnered overwhelming response from the buyers across the globe and India. The product-specific VBSMs are especially designed for the international buyers. Demand for gems and jewelry have gained momentum with the soon approaching holiday season that is expected to further boost the demand. Manufacturers of diamond jewelry are geared up to showcase some very exquisite and unique pieces designed and crafted for the world market”.
Dilip Shah, convener international exhibitions, GJEPC, said, “Conducting business on virtual platforms is the new normal, and our effort is to give a better experience each time. The key features of the VBSM are unique proprietary technology used for product profiling; augmented reality for enhanced product experience and parallel viewing of the product catalog — all these features will create a lifelike simulation and ensure that communication between buyers and sellers will be through servers and therefore secure.
“Through our various virtual shows, the effort is to revive the B2B transactions in business. In November, apart from diamond studded jewelry VBSM we also plan to organize VBSMs for colored gemstones, loose diamonds, silver jewelry and platinum jewelry,” added Dilip Shah.
