I’m pleased to have celebrated Ebdaá Awards through the years with the Jewellery and Watch Show Abu Dhabi. Last year was a milestone as we celebrated our tenth anniversary and launched the Creativity Unlimited award category. It has already seen talented creators from a variety of fields participate in the competition. I’m excited to see these designers flourish in their work as they continue to develop their skills and bring innovative ideas into the jewellery space.
