The Indian Institute of Gems & Jewellery is contributing towards this goal by developing skills and producing young entrepreneurs. I am pleased to know that 10000 students have graduated from this institution over the past one decade. The institute is creating future leaders who will contribute immensely to the economy of the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 400 students have graduated from IIGJ Mumbai so far. Out of which 40% run their own businesses and 60% are employed in the jewellery industry as designers, merchandisers, marketing personnel and in the production and product development departments. This speaks volumes for the quality of education received by students at IIGJ.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
