The preview allows B2B buyers to browse the jewellery and gemstone products in exhibitors’ online showrooms; filter, assess and identify suppliers they would like to connect with; and book one-on-one video meetings with exhibitors they have selected.
The physical edition of JGW takes place at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre from September 17 to 20. JGW Virtual enables trade participants to either prepare for JGW’s live days or do business remotely with their shortlisted suppliers from anywhere in the world.
