Baselworld has become a member of The World Jewellery Confederation (CIBJO) in a bid to “be more firmly rooted in the jewellery, gemstone and pearl industry, to be as close as possible to its stakeholders, to better understand their needs and to better support and serve them in their pursuit of the highest professional and ethical standards and technical skills” said in a statement.
The membership agreement is a win-win situation for both parties. Gaetano Cavalieri, president of the CIBJO said Baselworld, as a leading trade show for decades provides an effective platform to harmonise industry standards and promote corporate social responsibility and sustainability throughout the value chain.
CIBJO’s members mostly are national jewellery trade organisations from over 45 countries worldwide and cover jewellery, gemstone and precious metals vertically, from mining to retailing. It is the sole jewellery industry organisation to have Special Consultative Status with the United Nation (UN)’s Economic & Social Council and is a member of the UN Global Compact.
