Strong Industry Standards The Responsible Jewellery Council's (RJC) leadership in establishing globally recognized standards, including the updated Code of Practices and Chain of Custody, presents opportunities to collaborate with certification and compliance services that support responsible sourcing and ethical manufacturing within the jewelry industry.

Expanding Industry Engagement Recent partnerships with sustainable jewelry manufacturers like Loytee and new initiatives such as the Laboratory Grown Material Standard demonstrate RJC’s active efforts to expand its network, offering prospects to provide sustainability solutions, training, or technology integration for members seeking to meet evolving ESG standards.

Sustainable Market Focus With RJC’s strategic partnership with UNGC and its launch of SDG-related impact programs, there’s a clear focus on integrating sustainability and SDG commitments, opening sales opportunities in ESG consulting, impact measurement tools, and sustainable supply chain software tailored for industry players.

Digital and Technological Adoption The use of digital platforms such as online workshops and the recent launch of standards indicates openness to innovative technologies and digital solutions, making this a ripe environment for offering custom digital compliance, certification management tools, or industry-specific SaaS solutions.

Market Growth Potential With a revenue estimate between one to ten million dollars and a relatively modest staff size, RJC represents a growing nonprofit organization that could expand its influence, potentially seeking scalable solutions in areas like donor engagement, membership management, or outreach technology to support its mission and member services.
