The Indian Institute of Gems and Jewellery held its 16th convocation ceremony to celebrate its graduating students in Mumbai. The event welcomed names from the Indian jewellery industry and looked to its future.
The ceremony was held to honour the achievements of 36 graduating students from the IIGJ’s Bachelor’s degree in gems and jewellery, the Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council reported on its website. The event welcomed the World Gold Council’s regional CEO Somasundaram PR as its chief guest and other attendees included De Beers Forevermark’s national training manager Leena Amin and the IIGJ’s CEO Debasish Biswas among others.
“Ensure that whatever you create or whichever business you embark on bears your distinctive signature,” said the IIGJ’s chairman Milan Chokshi at the event, the GJEPC reported. “In an industry saturated with homogeneity and generic products, strive to build something uniquely your own. I urge all of you to maintain a connection with the institute, stay in touch with the faculty, and support future students in any way you can. Your contributions will greatly enrich the industry.”
At the ceremony, Lucky Choudhari was awarded the title of ‘Best Student’ out of the graduating class. The first runner up prize was awarded to Diya Rathod and second runner up prize to Shreya Pawar. The IIGJ is an initiative run under the GJEPC designed to contribute to the development of the Indian jewellery industry.
“After three years of a splendid journey, we are thrilled that you have successfully graduated,” said the IIGJ Mumbai’s head of institute Bharat Vaswani. “Now is the time to believe in yourselves and promote Brand India. Compete with yourselves, and rest assured, we have faith in you. You will undoubtedly make us proud in your careers.”
