Introducing our JVC Luncheon Live Interview: A Conversation with Valeriya Guzema.

Join us for an exclusive live interview during the JVC Luncheon where Victoria Gomelsky, Editor-in-Chief of JCK, will sit down with Valeriya Guzema, Ukrainian businesswoman, jewelry designer, and philanthropic activist. This compelling discussion aims to illuminate the human impact of the Russian sanctions through the lens of one individual’s journey amidst adversity.

Read more about Valeriya Guzema and Victoria Gomelsky

Valeriya Guzema – Founder and creative director of Guzema Fine Jewelry brand and Guzema Foundation. Mrs Guzema is Aspen Institute graduate, she is included in the «Top 30 Under 30» list by Kyiv Post (2020), the leading Ukrainian media, Ukrainian Forbes «30 Under 30» list (2021), named as the “Best Accessory Designer” by the Best Fashion Awards (2021, Ukraine).

Valeriya has always been passionate about fashion. Before establishing her brand, she worked for Elle Ukraine magazine as a fashion editor and HD Fashion TV channel as a fashion journalist. But nothing excited her more than jewelry, so, in 2015, she decided to get into the business. At the time, she had only $500 in savings. The start-up capital came from an unexpected source. Guzema’s mother gave her gold teeth that belonged to her grandfather. After selling them, Guzema had enough to create her first pieces. Even though the first collection was stolen, she kept her spirits up. In March 2016, she founded Guzema Fine Jewelry. Since then, Guzema has created more than 50 collections and opened 3 boutiques in Ukraine.

In 2021 Valeriya established the Guzema Foundation and began by assisting 70 children receiving heart treatments at the Chernihiv Regional Children’s Hospital. Following the heartbreak of the full-scale attack on Ukraine by Russia in 2022, the Guzema Foundation expanded its efforts to support the Ukrainian army and civilians affected by the occupation.

Victoria Gomelsky is editor-in-chief of JCK, America’s oldest and largest jewelry trade publication. Her freelance work has appeared in the New York Times, Robb Report, AFAR, the Hollywood Reporter, WSJ Magazine, and Waking Up American: Coming of Age Biculturally, an anthology published by Seal Press. She graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from UCLA with a BA in political science in 1995 and earned her MFA in nonfiction writing from Columbia University in 2002. She specializes in jewelry and watch writing but her greatest love has always been travel—60 countries and counting. Victoria is based in Los Angeles.

JVC needs your support NOW more than ever. Please remember – no amount is too small! We rely on the support and generosity of our members to continue the important work that we do on behalf of the jewelry industry.

Sponsorship levels will be available closer to the date of the event. Your participation will demonstrate your commitment to upholding the industry’s integrity through legal compliance and ethical business practices. The names of all 2024 sponsors will be posted online throughout the year to be recognized, acknowledged, and applauded.

JVC cherishes and thanks you for your generosity and loyalty. We hope to see you there!
