News this week: Singapore-based UBM Asia Trade
Fairs Pte Ltd has confirmed the attendance of more than 176 exhibitors from
25 countries and regions in the inaugural edition of the Singapore
Jewellery & Gem Fair. The fair will run from 12th to 15th
October 2013 at the Marina Bay Sands’
Expo and Convention Center.
The Singapore Jewellery & Gem Fair is supported by the Singapore Jewellers Association and Diamond
Exchange of Singapore among other associations. International exhibitors who
have confirmed participation include those originating from Belgium, Germany,
Japan, Italy, Switzerland, the U.K. and U.S.
Paul Wan, managing director of UBM Asia Trade Fairs, said, “Singapore
is also home to 91,200 high-net-worth individuals… We observe that wealthy
Asians have moved away from traditional investments towards ‘passion
investments’ such as jewellery. We already have the world’s largest fine
jewellery show in Hong Kong and hope to replicate its success in Singapore.”
