IEG Extends the best Made in Italy Goldsmith Manufacture Platform, ready to also serve fashion

Feb 28, 2024

Oroarezzo 2023All the very best of Made in Italy gold, silver and jewellery manufacturing, with semi-finished products, components and technologies. Oroarezzo 2024, the international platform for industrial jewellery production, organised by Italian Exhibition Group, will be back at Arezzo Fiere e Congressi – in the Tuscan city of Arezzo, Italy – from 11th to 14th May. And it will also be opening up to companies in the fashion supply chain.In fact, the 43rd edition will extend the exhibition mix: as Matteo Farsura, Global Exhibition Manager of IEG’s Jewellery & Fashion division, underlines, “the wide offer focused on the best gold and jewellery production, which responds to the market’s need for a quality supply to develop unique and private label creations – accompanied by the cash & carry area – will be further enriched with a section for fashion accessory production and processing.”

INTERNATIONAL BUYER INCOMING
Another strategic point is the incoming programme for buyers. Thanks to collaboration with ITA – Italian Trade Agency for the promotion abroad and internationalisation of Italian companies and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, it aims at business matching by looking at consolidated export markets – Eastern Europe, the USA and the Middle East – and even further to South East Asia and South America. A selection of Italian retailers particularly interested in the Cash & Carry area offer for ready-to-wear purchases for seasonal window display renewal is also expected to attend the show.

OROAREZZO 2024 WILL EXTEND THE OFFER TO THE PRECIOUS FASHION SECTION
Oroarezzo 2024 will inaugurate Precious Fashion, an area totally dedicated to the fashion accessory production chain with a special focus on Made in Italy. Brands, designers and style offices will be able to forge contacts with leading companies in technologies for high-level finishes, innovative processing, and efficient and sustainable processes at the service of the fashion and luxury sector. This section will showcase Italian excellences in chemical and galvanic metal processing and the most renowned companies operating in metal accessory and decoration production, welding and assembly.

TECHNICAL-SCIENTIFIC SEMINARS
Oroarezzo is also a technical training and professional updating platform for sector companies. A number of in-depth meetings on supply chain topics are scheduled to foster the growth of skills and knowledge in the sector, organised in cooperation with trade associations, leading companies, certification bodies and institutions.

33RD EDITION OF THE PREMIERE COMPETITION
Première, the historical competition with which Oroarezzo awards exhibiting companies’ best creations, will be back. An event that, for 33 editions, has been enhancing the technical know-how and creative skills of goldsmiths, called upon to interpret a theme proposed by Art Director Beppe Angiolini. Also confirmed this year is the Talents category specifically for students and young, under-30 designers.

EVOLUTION IN SYNERGY WITH THE TERRITORY
Thanks also to the strong synergy with the territory’s stakeholders, the Arezzo-Siena Chamber of Commerce, Arezzo Fiere e Congressi, Arezzo Municipality, Arezzo Province and the Region of Tuscany, the path traced by IEG to strengthen the event continues. In 2023, it resulted in a renewed, more contemporary, effective and welcoming layout with a greater focus on jewellery manufacturing, thanks to which the attendance of top companies from the Valenza district, which joined the best players from the districts of Arezzo, Vicenza and Torre del Greco , further enriched the show. The Expo Centre also underwent a general upgrading with infrastructural works undertaken by Arezzo Fiere e Congressi aimed at improving services and the visitor experience. A path that, as of the next edition, will lead to an even more complete offer that will reflect all the know-how, creativity and innovation of Made in Italy jewellery by addressing both the gold and fashion sectors.

A push for renewal that is also confirmed by the City of Arezzo’s exceptional involvement as a protagonist of initiatives that will further enhance the great tradition of its goldsmith district and its artistic and cultural heritage. An integral part of the show experience for international buyers arriving from the main world market as well as for buyers from all over the peninsula.
