New York--The world's elite jewelers and luxury timepiece designers and manufacturers will gather in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), from Oct. 18-21 to attend a by-invitation-only fine-jewelry event called the "Salon Prive Haute Joaillerie Dubai."

The event will offer introductions to new jewelry retail opportunities in the emerging international markets of China, Eastern Europe, India, the Middle East, Russia, South East Asia and Ukraine, according to event organizers.

This three-day trade show is a joint venture between luxury marketing organizations New York-based The Nancy Robey Partnership Inc. and Abu Dhabi, UAE-based Turret Middle East.

Thus far, approximately 130 international luxury retail companies, including store owners, chief executive officers and other senior decision makers, will be invited and hosted by Salon Prive Dubai at Dubai's Madinat Jumeirah.

Exhibitors at Salon Prive Dubai will be limited to 82 designers and select high-end non-jewelry sponsors, including other luxury brands, publications and service organizations.

About J will be a cornerstone of Salon Prive Dubai and will facilitate the grouping of the About J designer community in a meaningful way in the center of the jewelry collections.

The conference program is currently being put together in accordance with The Luxury Marketing Council Middle East led by Chief Executive Officer T.B. McClelland Jr.

"The World Wealth Report 2008, produced by Capgemini and Merrill Lynch, showed a 15.6 percent increase in the number of high-net-worth individuals in the Middle East, and they direct 32 percent of their 'investments of passion'--which reportedly the rich buy to display their wealth--into jewelry purchases," Turret Middle East Chairman Richard Hease said in a media release. "This is the highest percentage of all regions of the world, with other target markets, Russia, Eastern Europe and Asia next in ranking."

Hease added that Dubai is a tax-free, duty-free zone, which does not require carnets, which facilitates doing jewelry business in the area.
