New York, NY—Diamonds Do Good will convene viewpoints from key global industry leaders to discuss the future of the diamond and jewelry industry in a virtual gathering on July 30. Participants include De Beers CEO Bruce Cleaver, Signet CEO Gina Drosos, Alrosa CEO Sergey Ivanov, Rosy Blue managing director Russell Mehta, and Chow Tai Fook CEO Kent Wong.
The live interactive event will take place July 30 from 11 a.m. to noon EDT. Diamonds Do Good co-founder and civil rights advocate Dr. Benjamin Chavis will give opening remarks, along with a special appearance from magician and endurance artist David Blaine.
The event is free, although donations to support the work of Diamonds Do Good are greatly welcomed. Donations of $50 or more will receive a Green Bracelet as a thank-you gift.
“The world has undergone a seismic change over the last few months,” says Diamonds Do Good president Anna Martin. “Learning how global companies in our industry are adapting will bring perspective for all businesses.”
This will be the first in a series of virtual gatherings that Diamonds Do Good plans on hosting in the months to come. In between the global observations will be special ‘segment interludes,’ including Victoria Gomelsky announcing the winner of the Diamonds Do Good Jewelry Awards, a partnership with JCKannounced earlier this year.
Registration is free and will be announced soon on the Diamonds Do Good Website on the “About Us/Virtual Global Gathering page.
Diamonds Do Good was inspired by Nelson Mandela to tell the world about the positive impact of diamonds in Africa. Now supported by the global diamond industry, its mission is supporting programs that develop and empower people in natural diamond communities and sharing these stories of positive impact.
