It’s legendary. The annual gem and jewelry tradeshow Tucson “experience” connects you with colleagues, experts, miners, manufacturers, enthusiasts, collectors, artists, designers and friends in a way that is unlike anything else in the world. You can find anything from raw materials formed by Mother Earth to the finest stones and jewelry created with human artistry in Tucson, and all of it – from every corner of the world – is available to everyone to see, touch and buy.
For members of the gem trade, the excitement of Tucson and other international tradeshows is a fun mix of treasure hunting, friendship, competition, discovery, and inspiration all in one thrilling package. It’s too bad something this unique happens just once a year, isn’t it?

Tradeshows are competitive, and you’ve got to invest in pre-event promotion, advertising, direct mail and email newsletters, and even then, sales are never a guarantee. On top of making good direct sales, finding new clients and partnerships is another way to grow your business at a crowded event. That makes tradeshows a busy experience, and you may miss opportunities due to lack of time. Let us help you with GemCrowd.
Retain customers, save time and money
Preparing to debut your new discoveries, materials and designs at a tradeshow can be complicated and costly. Miners, cutters, craftsmen, artisans, manufacturers, and designers work all year to build inventory.
