The first Jewellery Forum Prize was awarded to the president of CIBJO Gaetano Cavalieri for his international commitment to favor a respectful development of the economical, social and ecological principles.
The prize, by Club degli Orafi Italia, was awarded during the 5th Jewellery Forum at the Bocconi University, Italy.
Cavalieri (57) a native of Catania, Sicily, shares his time between Catania and Milan. He is a chartered accountant, son of a jeweler, and has always been working in this sector. During his chairmanship of CIBJO he has been involved for years in the in-depth task of reassuring the international community and consumers about the authenticity of the jewels granted by a strict control of the production chain procedures which exclude eventual banned products from an ethical point of view.
During his tenure heading CIBJO, Cavalieri has repeatedly said that when purchasing a jewel, the consumer should trust the fact that the product is traded according to certain production chain procedures based on high social and economical standards.
Thanks to this initiative, CIBJO entered the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations in 2006 as a non governmental organization.
The Jewellery Forum, which takes place every other year, is organized by the Club degli Orafi and the Bocconi University under the auspicious of ICE, Italian Institute for Foreign Trade, in collaboration with the Vicenza Trade Fair, supported by A Diamond Is Forever and Securpol. The technical participation was taken care of by, and with the Ferrari Spumante, Acqua Surgiva and noname idea.
