New Technical Jewelry Symposium To Premiere At Vicenzaoro Jewelry Fair
For the first time in its 70-year history, the Vicenzaoro jewelry trade fair will host an adjacent gathering dedicated to metallurgy and jewelry manufacturing processes. Called the Vicenza Symposium, it will be held September 2 -4 Vicenza, Italy, prior to Vicenzaoro on September 5 -7.
Both events are B2B focused, open only to the jewelry trade.
The Vicenza Symposium is modeled after the Santa Fe Symposium with the objective of advancing jewelry making technology, the science of adornment if you will. The three-day event is modeled after the Santa Fe Symposium, founded in 1987 by Eddie Bell, the retired CEO of Rio Grande, an Albuquerque, N.M., company the manufactures, markets and sells jewelry-making supplies. He held his last symposium in 2022 following his retirement. By this time, it was the world's most important event on the technology and science of metallurgy and jewelry making, attracting professionals from around the world. This new event is an attempt to maintain the community that Bell established. In fact, Bell was named honorary president and will deliver opening remarks.
There will be 21 white papers delivered during the three-day event on artificial intelligence, 3D printing and other highly technical topics. Presentations will range from 'Gold in the Age of SLM-CNC Interface,' and 'Cracks, pores and other defects in jewellery – their causes and their prevention' to 'Potential of Pt-and-pd-based Bulk Metallic Glasses for Jewellery applications.'
It is fitting that it's established the Italian gold jewelry center of Vicenza, known as much for the technology of goldsmithing and jewelry making as well as it is for manufacturing jewels in the tradition of Italian design and style.

Familiar Names at Vicenzaoro
When Vicenzaoro opens September 5 at the IEG's Expo Centre, it will once again be a showplace for internationally known Italian jewelry brands such as Roberto Coin, Annamaria Cammilli, Damiani, Nanis, Fope and Crivelli. The revival of the historic Marina B jewelry brand will also be a focus of the show.
The fair attracts important jewelers from Europe and other parts of the world as well including Schreiner Fine Jewellery from Germany, Fabergé from the UK, Etho Maria from Greece, Carrera Y Carrera from Spain, and Statement Paris and D1928 from France.
Outside Europe, the Australian pearl jewelry company, Autore, will present its new high jewelry and fine jewelry designs.
One of the returning features of Vicenzaoro is 'The Design Room,' for independent high-end designers. This is one of the very few international venues where these designers can have a proper place to show their creations as most international jewelry shows focus on large manufacturers. These designers reinterpret jewelry with unique and exclusive creations. Among the best-known names are Alessio Boschi, whose creations combine culture, history and architecture; Mike Joseph, who focuses of geometric design studded with diamonds; Antonini Milano for lovers of pure yet structured lines; and Karen Suen who combines modern glam with classic jewelry techniques.
In addition, there's 'The 8' project, a creation of Boschi, fellow jewelry designers Alessia Crivelli and Luca Daverio, and the goldsmith foundation, Mani Intelligenti. The project promotes new Italian and international jewelry talents.
There's also a specific space for the watchmaking brands and accessories, a growing sector of the trade fair with more than 40 exhibitors.
All totaled the September Vicenzaoro jewelry trade fair is expected to attract more than 450 buyers from 60 countries who will view the products and services of approximately 1,200 exhibitors from 35 countries.
In its 70th year, Vicenzaoro claims to be the world's longest-running jewelry trade event. Vicenzaoro is held twice each year. Following the September show the next fair will be held January 16 – 20, 2026. Vicenzaoro and the Vicenza Symposium is owned and operated by the Italian Exhibition Group (IEG), an international trade show company based in Rimini, Italy.

Tranche-based financing to support clinical development for the Company's late-stage assets in hemato-oncology including Xervyteg® currently under review for potential approval by the EMA and MaaT033 currently in Phase 2b clinical evaluation Funding is part of the European Investment Bank (EIB)'s strategy to support biotech companies with cutting-edge expertise in therapeutic areas such as hemato-oncology Structured Debt financing from the EIB is another stepping stone in MaaT Pharma's multi-sourcing financing strategy LYON, France, July 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News: MaaT Pharma (EURONEXT: MAAT – the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company and a leader in the development of Microbiome Ecosystem Therapies™ (MET) dedicated to enhancing survival for patients with cancer through immune modulation, today announced that it has secured a €37.5 million, 4-tranche financing from the European Investment Bank (EIB). The financing will support the advancement of its late-stage hemato-oncology clinical programs including the lead-asset Xervyteg®, recently partnered with Clinigen in Europe, and currently under regulatory review by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for the treatment of acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGvHD) and the second drug candidate, MaaT033, currently being evaluated in a Phase 2b randomized controlled trial in improving survival for patients receiving allogeneic stem cell transplants. With robust cGMP manufacturing, proprietary therapies, and a development platform, MaaT Pharma is a global leader in microbiome-based oncology, pioneering full-ecosystem therapies to improve survival in oncology. Since completing enrollment in the ARES trial for Xervyteg® (MaaT013) in October 2024, MaaT Pharma has steadily advanced its roadmap, reporting topline results in January 2025, submitting the Marketing Authorization Application with the European Medicines Agency in June 2025, and signing an exclusive agreement for marketing and distribution in Europe with Clinigen in July 2025. The €37.5 million financing from the EIB follows a rigorous due diligence process by the EIB and further confirms MaaT Pharma's innovation, strategic vision and operational maturity. This funding is part of a global financial strategy to support the Company's development that combines various non-dilutive and dilutive sources to best preserve shareholder value.

Each operational and financing step strengthens our track record.

As previously announced, MaaT Pharma intends to fund its plans and development programs while preserving shareholder value in the best manner possible with a mix of non-dilutive and dilutive financial sources, and the recent announcements of both partnership financing with the Clinigen agreement and debt financing with the EIB agreement, are benchmarks to reflect that strategy."

Atalanta eye move for Everton striker Beto
Everton striker Beto is a target for Serie A side Atalanta as they look to bolster their attack ahead of next season, per La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Tuttomercatoweb). The 2023/24 Europa League champions are in the market for a striker after losing Mateo Retegui to Saudi Pro League side Al-Qadsiah. Ademola Lookman could also leave this summer for Atletico Madrid or Inter Milan. Atalanta have turned to the Everton centre-forward, who knows Serie A well from his time with Udinese, where he scored 22 times in 65 appearances. The Toffees picked Beto up from the Italian side. Everton already spent £27 million to sign Thierno Barry from Villarreal and might consider letting Beto leave. The manager might not welcome the idea after seeing Armando Broja and Dominic Calvert-Lewin leave. The Toffees are light in front, and sanctioning Beto's exit might not be wise. Beto bagged eight goals and two assists in 30 Premier League appearances last term. Everton should hold on to Beto unless Atalanta can cough up serious money (View). He is far from the most prolific striker. However, he remains a wise squad option, especially under David Moyes. His size, work rate, and willingness to press make him an ideal back-up to Barry, who will need time to adapt to the Premier League. With Calvert-Lewin and Broja gone, Everton cannot afford to weaken their frontline further. Beto knows his role and fits Moyes' physical, direct system. His hold-up play, aerial ability, and link-up strengths remain underrated. Atalanta might be tempted by his Serie A experience, but unless they are offering enough to fund a clear upgrade, Everton should resist. Moyes needs depth and reliability, not another hole to patch. Beto, who earns £50,000 per week, is the right man to keep around, unless the money is too good to refuse.
