GemGenève Hits Record Attendance Amid Market Uncertainty.

The international fine jewellery exhibition GemGenève has closed its 10th edition with record attendance, despite ongoing global economic and geopolitical uncertainty.

Held at Palexpo Geneva from May 7 to 10, the event attracted 5,365 visitors, surpassing the previous edition’s 4,970 attendees. Organisers confirmed that this marks one of the most successful editions since the show began in 2018.

The event brought together exhibitors including traders, jewellers, designers, and artisans from around the world. Participants reported strong engagement, high-quality business discussions, and favourable conditions for completing transactions, even in a challenging global market environment.

Co-founder Ronny Totah said the show demonstrated that the jewellery market remains resilient, driven by rarity, craftsmanship, and trust. He added that despite geopolitical tensions and slowing markets, demand for fine jewellery continues to show strong international interest.

This year’s edition featured participants from 109 nationalities, with notable increases in repeat visitors. Attendance rose by more than 10% compared with the previous year, with strong representation from Switzerland, France, Italy, Belgium, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Organisers stated that GemGenève continues to position itself as a global hub for the jewellery industry, connecting traditional craftsmanship with modern design innovation. The strong turnout signals ongoing confidence in the high-end luxury sector despite global financial uncertainty.
