"The new location, show enhancements and updated technology drove positive energy and increased business connections," says Sarin Bachmann, Event Vice President, JCK & Luxury. "We provided exciting must-see offerings in direct response to our loyal participant's feedback and to industry research. We were thrilled to hear we were considered the 'fun' show! The park themed décor, jewelry focused instagrammable moments, exciting evening events and a daytime DJ all added to the positive vibe. The show floor was packed and there was great buzz about everything taking place and all that our exhibitors had to offer. We are proud to bring the entire industry together, with new products, trends, technologies, as well as opportunities for education, networking and fun, all under one roof."
