New €60 million hall adds 23,000 square metres of exhibition capacity
The show's centrepiece is the debut of Hall 2, a two-level, 23,000-square-metre building designed by architecture firm GMP. The structure forms part of a €60 million investment by IEG in the Vicenza exhibition centre, expanding capacity and connectivity across the venue.
T.Gold manufacturing tech show folds into Vicenzaoro's district twice yearly
Starting with this edition, T.Gold -- IEG's showcase for jewellery manufacturing technology -- moves into Hall 4 and will run twice a year, in January and September, alongside Vicenzaoro. The segment covers additive manufacturing, automation, sustainability solutions and precious-material recovery technologies, placing suppliers of manufacturing equipment directly alongside brands and finished-jewellery makers.
Matteo Farsura, Global Exhibition Manager Jewellery & Fashion at IEG, said the integration extends beyond the exhibition floor, positioning Vicenzaoro as a platform where technology, manufacturing and international markets converge twice annually rather than once.
CIBJO Centenary Congress brings 400 global gold-industry leaders to Vicenza
Vicenzaoro September will also host the CIBJO Centenary Congress, gathering 400 key leaders from the World Jewellery Confederation in Vicenza. The event reinforces the city's standing within the international gold trade during the same week as the exhibition.
The show's Jewellery Boutique Show format continues to group specialised supply-chain communities -- technology, manufacturing, finished jewellery, gemstones, components, watches and packaging -- within a single exhibition ecosystem.
