Booking Deadline: Midday, Monday 6th September.
The NAJ Summit has streamlined the Association’s most popular in-person events to give time and resource-strapped jewellery business owners the best return on time investment. The five ‘peaks’ of the event are: The Valuers’ Conference, hosted by the Institute of Registered Valuers (IRV); the Retail Jewellers’ Congress, hosted by the NAJ Jet Business Network; the NAJ Members’ Gala Dinner sponsored by Back on the High Street (BoTH); a Suppliers’ Showcase, hosted by The Jeweller magazine; and a series of workshops, seminars and networking events for the trade.
Kickstarting the NAJ LIVE Webinar on August 26 was Michael Donaldson, facilitator of the NAJ's JET Business Network and host of the Retail Jewellers' Congress, who gave attendees a preview of one-day event on Monday, September 13.
Next, Sarah Jordan of The William Agency described the line-up of Better Business Seminars, including a trio of marketing-themed talks on Sunday, September 12 that are specifically targeted at independent jewellery retailers and jewellery business owners.
To preview the three-day Valuers’ Conference, Simon Johnson MIRV, who will be delivering a practical ‘GemVal’ workshop and a useful ‘Mounted Diamond Assessment Refresher’ session, explained why the Conference is an absolute must for business leaders, retail jewellery staff and those training or wishing to become a valuer themselves.
NAJ Summit 2021 Headline Sponsor, Continental UK, offered attendees and prospective attendees a glimpse of the Suppliers’ Showcase, which also takes place across all three days of the event. The team also shared why they are looking forward to the inaugural Summit and how they will be making the most of the De Vere Staverton Estate’s facilities.
Finally, NAJ Commercial Manager, Garry Lane, provided some highlights of the Members’ Gala Dinner, taking place on the evening of Sunday, September 12. He advised those who have already purchased their tickets of the entertainment, timings, and the all-important dress code.
