OROAREZZO 2026: GLOBAL SCENARIOS, NEW STRATEGIES, AND JEWELRY SUPPLY CHAIN INNOVATION
In a context of geopolitical tensions and markets in need of restructuring, companies in the Arezzo italian district are responding with manufacturing capabilities and industry technologies, which will be showcased at Oroarezzo 2026, to be held at Arezzo Fiere e Congressi from May 9 to 12. The Italian Exhibition Group’s international trade show will be attended by the most representative exhibitors, not only from the “home” Made in Italy district but also from Vicenza, Valenza and Milan, in line with last year’s edition. IEG aims to diversify both hosted buyer incoming and content with the first “The Global Outlook 2026. Global jewelry markets and practical tools for business growth” conference – organized in collaboration with Federorafi Confindustria Nazionale, the Italian Trade Agency (ITA), and AFEMO – and “Precious Fashion”, the new entry that, from a talk series, will become an exhibition area specifically for fashion accessories.
«IEG’s work on Oroarezzo is unyielding and ongoing» says Matteo Farsura, head of IEG’s Jewellery & Fashion division. «In an international climate of uncertainty, we are aware of companies’ concerns regarding the slowdown in strategic markets, particularly in the Middle East. We are therefore grateful for the renewed trust of our exhibitors and assure them that we are implementing a proactive strategy with the aim of further diversifying the tools at disposal. We strongly believe in a team-based approach: together with trade associations, local institutions and businesses, we regularly share updates on incoming activities, tangibly directing our joint efforts».

HOSTED FOREIGN BUYERS: THE INCOMING SITUATION
In this context, IEG is strengthening its commitment to support businesses by collaborating with the Italian Trade Agency to boost its hosted buyer search and selection efforts. The goal is to expand opportunities in emerging markets, in addition to established ones, through a targeted buyer incoming program aimed at attracting qualified operators from Europe, Asia and North Africa. Currently, hosted buyers registered for the event will be arriving from 49 countries with the United States in the lead, followed by Romania, Hong Kong, Poland, Mexico, Argentina and Morocco.
NEW FOR OROAREZZO: PRECIOUS FASHION BECOMES AN EXHIBITION AREA
One of the main new features at Oroarezzo 2026 will be the debut of Precious Fashion, an exhibition area specifically for fashion accessories. The project is a natural evolution of the content explored at the three previous editions. Not just an area, but a concrete narrative of the supply chain: from technological design to metalworking, all the way to the most refined finishes, including enamels, gemstones and advanced treatments. Here, goldsmithing expertise will meet the world of fashion through 16 featured companies: L.E.M., Legor Group, Sisma, Novart, Meccanica Marcato, Fatà Smalti, Esa Electroforming Chemistry, companies in the Consorzio Physis –Trea, C&G Depurazioni, Giosi2, Galvamet, OMS, Griba, Bandinelli e Forni e L.E.M. Industries- Taurini – Pianeta Gemme and UnoGlam. An ecosystem of excellence that can transform metal into exquisite details with elevated quality, traceability and sustainability standards. A project that taps into a rapidly evolving sector, one that is playing an increasingly central role in communication between jewelry manufacturing and the luxury industry.
