Mujeres Brillantes on the 2018 World Tour
The second stop of the World Tour Mujeres Brillantes 2018 took place in the city of Sao Paulo , Brazil during the International Women's Week . Unlike in Panama City in January, which focused more on the visits to Jewelry´s Schools and Stores allied to the Association, the World Tour - Brazil focused on promoting talk sessions focused on women's entrepreneurship.
On the first day of the World Tour - Brazil, President Ali Pastorini signed an alliance with the European Institute of Design (IED) leading members of the Association to visit the establishment, meet their laboratories and study the possibility of developing a project for professional development of the woman.
On the same day there was a Talk Session with the theme "Entrepreneurship in the Jewelry Market" with the participation of IED professionals as well as the President of Mujeres Brillantes debating the Brazilian market and why many jewelers in the country are choosing to manufacture their pieces in China and not in the country itself, showing a point to be improved in Latin America which is the specialized labor force.
On the second day of the World Tour - Brazil the President visited stores chosen by the Tour to meet and promote some of its members, in total there were 9 chosen jewelers, among them: Leia Sgro, CrisZalli, Marina Garcia, Raphaela Rocha, Nina Renucci , Thiago Moreira, Elisa Inoue, Gislaine Ribeiro and Marcia Mizutah.

The first talk was with attorney Regina Ferreira, who spoke about the importance of registering the brand.
