Making its second visit to India, the sales team for the International Gem Tower will be visiting Mumbai at the upcoming India International Jewellery Show (IIJS) and in Delhi, for a period between August 3 to 14, 2011. This year will be the 28th edition of the IIJS, the premier B2B trade platform, howcasing the best in idnia and international gem and jewellery industry. The team is hoping to gain leverage from meeting the best in the industry at this event, where it will host hold private meetings. It will also take its meetings to the Santacruz Electronics Export Processing Zone ( SEEPZ), where many of Mumbai's leading diamond and jewelry firms have factories and production units.

The IGT team's visit to India comes on the heels of a number of media reports in the U.S., reporting that the market is witnessing a steady climb in prices to buy and lease real estate in New York City. "Those who plan to lease office space in Manhattan within the next five years will be struck by a dramatic increase in prices," said Joseph Lipton, partner in the IGT project. "Even during the economic slump, the New York City real estate market is expanding, as rental fees continue to rise and new construction projects prices are on the up. And that will only accelerate as the economy recovers," Lipton added.
