INHORGENTA 2025 More international than ever, strong business and growth
INHORGENTA 2025, Europe’s leading platform for jewelry, watches, and gemstones, set new standards once again from February 21 to 24, 2025. The four days were filled with inspiration, captivating worlds of jewelry, watches, and gemstones, and many exciting highlights. With international growth and groundbreaking partnerships, INHORGENTA provided momentum for the industry in challenging times.
The exhibition halls were filled with energy, innovation, and surprises. INHORGENTA 2025 set the stage for another successful year for the industry. With 1,334 brands from 38 countries, it grew by 3.4% compared to the previous year, after the 2024 edition had already seen a 9% increase. This continued strong growth is primarily due to the high level of international participation—more than half of the exhibitors came from abroad. The proportion of visitors interested in high-priced products starting at 5,000 euros increased from 11% to 24% in the jewelry sector and from 14% to 24% in the watch sector.
INHORGENTA enjoys exceptionally high customer satisfaction. 98% of visitors rated INHORGENTA 2025 as “good” to “excellent ,” a 2-percentage point increase. Particularly praised were the international diversity of exhibitors, the atmosphere, and the security at the fair.

INHORGENTA is now more international than ever. Italian exhibitors occupied the largest space, the Francéclat pavilion expanded its area, as more French watch brands joined each year. INHORGENTA’s international growth is driven by two key factors: On one hand, by industry-specific events such as the international TRENDFACTORY. On the other hand, by the strong global presence of Messe München, one of the largest exhibition organizers in the world.

India proudly takes on the role of official partner country at INHORGENTA 2025, marking a pivotal moment in the global gem and jewellery industry.

Gifting That Lasts – How Gold and Silver Coins Bridge Heritage and Modern Life
Ketan Kothari , Director of Augmont
Most people think of gifting gold and silver as a nod to nostalgia. In reality, it’s one of the few traditions that has outperformed every modern “smart” gift you can name. Long before fintech apps and inflation charts, Indian households treated these metals as portable wealth, a hedge against uncertainty, and a quiet transfer of wisdom from one generation to the next. That logic has not aged a day; rather, it remains even more relevant in a world where assets can be compromised with a password reset.

What has changed is the way these coins look and live in our lives. Classic Lakshmi – Ganesh motifs now share space with clean, contemporary designs that feel at home in a digital world. The modern take on it makes each piece both timeless and current. Every coin carries its own story, turning family milestones into tangible memories while steadily gaining value as gold and silver prices continue to climb year after year. It is beauty and intrinsic value in one small disc. It is a heritage you can hold, and an investment built to last across generations.
Augmont brings this legacy to life with coins that pair high purity with artistry that honors tradition while embracing today’s aesthetic, offering a gift as enduring as the heritage it represents.

2. Stories Encased in Metal
These coins carry meaning at multiple levels. Many are tied to festivals, family traditions, or commemorative events, reimagining each piece as a memory that endures alongside its value.

How Tradition Meets Technology
1. Timed for Auspicious Moments
Gold and silver coins remain the benchmark for occasions like Diwali, Akshaya Tritiya, and other auspicious events. With digital and quick-commerce platforms, these timeless gifts can now be bought and gifted instantly, without compromising the ritual.
2. Convenience Of Payment
UPI-enabled transactions bring efficiency without losing the emotional value of gifting.
3. A Platform Built for Today
Platforms like Augmont make it easy to combine tradition with today’s convenience, whether it’s setting up Gold/Silver SIPs, picking Gold/Silver coins online, storing them securely, or redeeming as per convenience. The old and the new come together without missing a beat.
Gold and silver coins have a way of staying with us long after the festival. They become part of the stories families live and share. A coin given at Diwali, added to a wedding trousseau, or exchanged to mark a milestone, holds memories, celebrates relationships, and marks achievements. Over the years, these coins carry the weight of tradition, the joy of moments lived, and the reassurance of foresight. By bringing the past into the present, they turn every gift into something personal, lasting, and truly memorable.
