By opening our doors to the public in such a vibrant way, we hope to engage families, students, and jewelry lovers, creating memorable experiences and igniting new passions for the art of jewelry.”
Khadija Al Bastaki, Senior Vice President of d3, part of TECOM Group, emphasized the importance of the event: “The future of design relies on platforms that encourage dialogue, awareness, and engagement to drive sustainable growth and innovation.
