In a bid to build stronger business ties with the US jewellery retail market, India’s Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) is planning to invite over 100 top US jewellery retail executives to Mumbai for a five-day business summit, which is scheduled for early October.%%The Indo-US Jewelry Business Development Conference, which is modelled on the annual Fine Jewellery CEO Summit, will include a series of seminars, presentations and panel discussions from industry experts covering a range of issues on the first two days. One-to-one closed door meetings between Indian suppliers and US retailers have been prescheduled.%%The participants will visit manufacturing facilities in and around Mumbai on the third day, and will fly out to Agra on a sightseeing trip to the Taj Mahal on the fourth day.%%The event is being organised along with the US-based jewellery consultant firm, R&B Partners, the GJEPC said.
