The INOVA COLLECTION concept offers a smooth transition between exhibition, catering and supporting programme. Of course, our design competition the GOLDEN NOVA is an essential part of the event at our new location on the premises of Messe Frankfurt. The competition not only offers applicants the opportunity to reach a wide audience of specialists with their creations, but also to make a successful start in the industry. The three best-placed participants have been selected by our top-class expert jury and will receive great prizes in money and materials at the award ceremony! Where? Award area Hall 11.0, booth A16 public without registration For retailers, it is crucial to understand the customer’s journey into the shop and to be present on this journey to the right extent, at the right places. This is the only way to succeed in “driving the customer to the store”. Let’s take a brief look at how and where technologies such as augmented reality, artificial intelligence, paired with digital and analogue marketing lead the customer to the shop and why it would be a mistake to lose sight of the values of the classic, stationary jeweller. The digital future of the jeweller is stationary! Who?
