Subhash Desai, Hon. Minister of Industries, Maharashtra said, “This event will change the game in the Jewellery manufacturing space. It will add tremendous value to the domain. This show will provide adequate exposure to the industry players across India. I’m sure many hidden gems will get the much-needed limelight. It’s truly a great contribution towards positioning India as a significant player of the domain on the global platform”

Shyam Jagannathan, Zonal Development Commissioner, SEZ stated highlighted, “The significance of the Gems and Jewellery sector is evident in the direct employment to close to over 8 million people, contributing a high share of exports (more than textiles and apparels/ automotive etc.) and nearly totalling $40 billion of the total $400 billion mark in exports touched by the nation as a first-ever and a fitting tribute on the nation’s 75th anniversary of independence. India is a world leader with 14 out of 15 diamonds processed globally being done here, and immense growth potential exists for the Gems and Jewellery sector. The growth strategy encompasses better technology, smarter and competitive value addition, skill up gradation and standardisation in quality. For the country with the highest consumption of gold jewellery with tonnes in terms of production, there is no dedicated exposition to showcase Indian Jewelry Machinery Companies. JMAIIE will put Indian jewellery machinery companies on the world map and help them penetrate Indian and potential markets further. It will truly represent and position the ‘Make in India’ ideology worldwide and is indeed a welcome initiative.”

Kranti Nagvekar, Managing Director of KNC Services mentioned, “There wasn’t any exclusive, independent machinery show in India. This show will take care of the huge need gap and will benefit the entire Indian jewellery manufacturing industry plus the countries around us. It will help put Indian jewellery machinery companies on the world map. JMAIIE will witness close to 10,000 visitors during the four-day expo. JMAIIE truly positions, the ‘Make in India initiative’ and is poised to become the largest sourcing hub for jewellery machinery and allied products worldwide.”

Gianluigi Barettoni, President of AFEMO said, “AFEMO, a prestigious Italian association of Jewellery machinery companies is elated to extend its support to JMAIIE. It is well known that the bond between Italian technology producers and Indian jewellery producers is strong and long-standing. AFEMO is proud of representing the world’s most important brands in the sector of technology for jewellery production.”
