India is ready to make a grand entry into the European market through its participation in the 2025 Inhorgenta Munich trade fair, as highlighted during the IIJS Premiere Innov8 session of Stefanie Mändlein of Messe Munchen, who spoke about “India Pavilion at Inhorgenta Munich 2025-Gateway for Indian manufacturers & exporters to enter the European market”. With the European jewellery market expanding and diversifying, the India Pavilion at Inhorgenta is positioned as a pivotal gateway for Indian manufacturers and exporters to establish a stronger foothold in Europe.
The session, led by Stefanie Mändlein, Exhibition Director of Messe München, emphasised the importance of India’s participation in the event. Inhorgenta Munich, scheduled to take place from 21 to 24 February 2025, is a prestigious trade fair known for its extensive display of jewellery, gemstones, watches, and other luxury items. The India Pavilion will showcase the finest Indian jewellery, aiming to redefine perceptions of Indian craftsmanship in the European market.
She said, “This partnership, in collaboration with GJEPC, underscores India’s rising prominence in the European jewellery sector. Inhorgenta offers an unparalleled platform with world-class infrastructure in Munich, providing Indian jewellers and watchmakers with a unique opportunity to connect with over 25,000 trade visitors from 90 countries.”
Mändlein shared insights into the strategic significance of this partnership, noting, “The European market is evolving rapidly, and there’s a growing appetite for unique and culturally rich designs. The India Pavilion at Inhorgenta will not only display exquisite Indian craftsmanship but also highlight India’s potential as a key player in the global jewellery industry.”
The Pavilion will also offer a platform for Indian businesses to network with international buyers, explore collaborative opportunities, and tap into new markets. The Innov8 session underscored the necessity of effective communication before, during, and after the trade fair to maximise the Pavilion’s impact. With a focus on premium displays and a series of events designed to attract European buyers, the India Pavilion at Inhorgenta Munich 2025 is set to be a game-changer for Indian exporters seeking to expand their reach in Europe.
This move signals India’s growing influence in the global jewellery market, and the 2025 Inhorgenta Munich trade fair is set to be a landmark event in strengthening Indo-European trade relations.
