Hong Kong gem and jewelry show

Hello!

I will be attending the HongKong jewelery show this coming
September. This is the first time I will be attending this show and I
was wondering if someone could tell me how it compares to the Tucson
gem show? I have been to Tucson and I am just wondering what to
expect at the HK show since the Asian and American markets are very
different. The main goal of my trip is primarily research
based—familiarizing myself with the different markets.

My business is very new (right now, I am a one-woman show) and I am
still trying to define my market. Though I am based in the US, my
work is generating positive response in asia, particularly the
Philippines, which is where I am from. I would really appreciate any
or tips for someone like me who is starting out in the
jewelry business. Thank you for your time and I look forward to your
replies.
