The Company of Master Jewellers (CMJ) has officially announced the launch of its first ever Supplier Member Conference, scheduled to take place on 5 June 2024 in Warwickshire. This event marks a significant milestone for CMJ as it aims to foster closer relationships and collaboration among its supplier members. Registration for the conference is now open, with attendance being complimentary for supplier members.
Emmet Cummins, managing director of the Company of Master Jewellers, said: “We want to take a morning to achieve three primary objectives. We want to reinforce the value that membership of the Company of Master Jewellers brings to our suppliers, we want to share our plans moving forward on how we will continue to support and develop their businesses, and we also want to give our supplier members the opportunity to share their views and have their input on how we can collectively move forward together.”
Event Details and Structure
The conference will be structured to provide both informative and engaging segments throughout the day. The morning session will feature a comprehensive business update and an open forum discussion, designed to address current industry challenges and opportunities. This will facilitate an interactive environment where supplier members can exchange ideas and insights.
In the afternoon, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a series of adventure activities. This not only offers a chance for networking in a more relaxed setting but also aims to encourage team-building amongst the members.
Registration and Attendance
Attendance at the Supplier Member Conference is limited, emphasizing the exclusivity and importance of the event. Places will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, underscoring the need for prompt registration by interested parties. Supplier members wishing to attend can register by logging into the CMJ members’ site and navigating to the Events section.
Implications for the Jewellery Industry
This conference is particularly significant for the jewellery industry as it represents a proactive approach by CMJ to engage directly with its suppliers. By bringing together various stakeholders in a structured yet informal environment, CMJ aims to enhance communication channels and align strategic objectives among its members. This initiative could potentially lead to innovations in product offerings and improved supply chain efficiencies, which are critical in the fast-evolving jewellery market.
