From Bid to International Partnership

GEM AND JEWELLERY EXPORT PROMOTION COUNCIL (GJEPC) OF INDIA

Event date: YEAR 2021 onwards

What began as a successful bid in 2021 has since evolved into a multi-country, multi-year partnership of delivering brilliance across borders for GJEPC — a true reflection of CONFEX’s ability to deliver not just events, but lasting value.

Our ongoing collaboration with the GJEPC — through the International Gem & Jewellery Show (IGJS) and Jewellery Arabia — is more than just a client relationship. It’s a story of trust earned, markets unlocked, and standards consistently exceeded.

It Started in Dubai

Our journey began in October 2021, when CONFEX was entrusted with the complete execution of the inaugural IGJS event in Dubai. It was a large-scale, turnkey assignment:

Exhibition production — floor marking, booth fabrication, branding, and custom stickering

Hospitality management — hotel bookings, registration flow, and guest experience

High-profile social events — from elegant gala dinners to vibrant networking evenings

Every aspect was managed in-house, on an aggressive timeline, in a highly competitive international setting.

Expanding the Footprint: Bahrain & Saudi Arabia

After Dubai’s success, GJEPC’s trust in CONFEX grew — leading to expansion into new markets including Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.

Each country presented new challenges: regional regulations, vendor ecosystems, logistical complexity. But CONFEX adapted quickly, proving our ability to operate seamlessly across borders and deliver consistent quality — no matter the landscape.

Scaling with Precision

Our projects for GJEPC have ranged from simple shell scheme setups to bespoke exhibition builds covering 1,000+ sqm, each requiring different resources, teams, and timelines.

This demonstrated not just our flexibility, but our scalability — the ability to grow with the client’s needs and deliver excellence at every level, from boutique exhibitions to full-scale trade showcases.

A Relationship That Reflects Our Promise

Since 2021, CONFEX has remained a trusted partner year after year — a testament to our consistency, agility, and deep understanding of high-stakes, high-value industry events.

With every IGJS and Jewellery Arabia edition, we’ve helped GJEPC and its stakeholders strengthen their global presence — and in doing so, we’ve reinforced our own.

At CONFEX, we don’t just win projects — We grow partnerships that span countries, cultures, and years.
