A dynamic group of Dubai-based jewellery designers, united under the Dubai Business Group for Gold and Jewelry Designers (DBGGJD), is visiting IIJS Premiere to explore further collaboration opportunities\u00a0 with the Indian industry on various fronts. The \u00a0Chairperson of the group, Maha Al Sibai, shares exclusive insights with Solitaire International<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Tell us more about when and why the Dubai Business Group for Gold and Jewelry Designers was established?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Dubai Business Group for Gold and Jewelry Designers (DBGGJD) was established in early 2024 to support and develop local and regional talent in the jewellery design sector.<\/p>\n

This strategic initiative by the Dubai Chamber of Commerce signifies a pivotal step towards uniting talent, encouraging collaborations, and providing essential resources to elevate the collective artistry of UAE\u2019s jewellery designers on a global scale.<\/p>\n

At the heart of the Dubai Business Group for Gold and Jewelry Designers is a commitment to facilitating a two-way dialogue between government entities and the jewellery design sector. This engagement serves as a vital conduit for addressing policy matters, enhancing industry competitiveness, and developing a conducive business environment. By fostering collaboration and open communication between the designers and the government, the group aims to drive positive change and unlock new opportunities for growth and innovation within Dubai’s gold industry.<\/p>\n

What were the primary motivations and goals behind the formation of the group?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The primary motivations behind the formation of DBGGJD were to advance the interests of its members and bolster the competitiveness of Dubai’s jewellery design industry. By creating a platform for advocacy, the group aims to champion policy changes beneficial to the sector, driving market competitiveness and encouraging sustainable growth. Additionally, the initiative seeks to sustain the promising trajectory of jewellery designers in the region and their businesses, ensuring it continues to thrive and contribute significantly to the economy.<\/p>\n

Can you share a specific successes or milestones?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We feel our biggest milestone was the official establishment of the group itself.<\/p>\n

Attracting a diverse group of talented jewellery designers to join this initiative has been a significant achievement.<\/p>\n

We are grateful to the Retail Jeweller Middle East for supporting us from the very start and felicitating the group at the Retail Jeweller Dubai Forum earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The response from industry has been overwhelmingly positive and we are incredibly excited about the promising future ahead of us.<\/p>\n

What are some of the notable initiatives or projects the group has undertaken?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are grateful to our industry partners who are helping us at various touchpoints in our business – such as Legal, Education, Retail and Marketing, amongst others.<\/p>\n

Notable initiatives include\u00a0 collaboration with Horizon & Co Law firm, HRD Antwerp DMCC, Ziina Payment solutions, Foochia Media agency amongst others. These collaborations will offer our members exclusive benefits and are aimed at providing our members with right tools and resources to support their business and enhancing their skills and knowledge, ensuring they remain at the forefront of the industry.<\/p>\n

We are also grateful to GJEPC and IIGJ for hosting us at Jaipur earlier this year. Jaipur\u2019s significance in the global gem and jewellery industry cannot be overstated. The city\u2019s expert artisans and thriving gem markets make it a vital hub for gem enthusiasts and professionals alike. We look forward to working closely with them in near future.<\/p>\n

What attracted the group to visit India and attend the IIJS show?<\/strong><\/p>\n

India is renowned for its rich heritage and expertise in jewellery design and craftsmanship. Attending the IIJS show allows us to explore the latest trends, innovations, and opportunities for collaboration. It provides a platform to connect with Indian designers, manufacturers, and industry leaders, furthering relationships that can lead to mutually beneficial partnerships.<\/p>\n

How do you view the jewellery industry in India compared to Dubai’s market?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The jewellery industry in India is known for its intricate designs, skilled craftsmanship, and rich cultural heritage. In comparison, Dubai’s market is characterised by its global appeal, innovative designs, and a thriving trade hub. Both markets have unique strengths and offer immense potential for collaboration and growth.<\/p>\n

Are there specific types of jewellery, gemstones, or designs that the group is interested in sourcing from India?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Indian jewellery\u2019s unique and intricate craftsmanship align well with our mission to elevate the artistry of UAE’s jewellery designers. We look forward to exploring collaborations and partnerships that would reflect rich cultural craftsmanship heritage and modern design trends.<\/p>\n

How do you see the potential for future collaborations between Indian jewellery designers and your group?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The potential for future collaborations is substantial. Collaborations can include joint ventures, design exchanges, and knowledge-sharing initiatives. We are excited about the possibilities and look forward to forging strong partnerships with Indian jewellery designers.<\/p>\n

We are also planning to have an annual international jewellery design competition and we invite jewellery designers from India and the rest of the world to participate and share their unique storytelling through their designs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
