The World Jewelry Center (WJC) reached another milestone during the recent JCK show in Las Vegas, where more than 30 international jewelry firms were the first to claim specific office space in the 50-story trade tower.

"With office space now reserved by 138 firms—including at least 11 new letters of intent signed during the JCK show—we felt it was important to start designating specific space to give our early adopters the benefit of their preferred location," Bill Boyajian said in a media release issued on Friday. "In this way, they will also know which firms will be close to them, including their direction of view and grouping by industry sector or country, if desired."

Boyajian also said the JCK Show was a great success for the WJC. In addition to the letters of intent signed at the show, nearly 24 more were requested and are waiting to be signed.
