ICA and AV Globale to Launch ICA GemBureau Middle East December 22, 2023 (0 comments)
New York, NY--The International Colored Gemstone Association (ICA) signed an agreement with AV Globale, a Dubai-based ICA member, to establish the ICA GemBureau Middle East, in Dubai, as a dedicated facility designed to meet the needs of ICA members and trade representatives in the Middle East and overseas.
ICA works to partner with industry organizations worldwide to set up GemBureaus, which provide ICA members with information, knowledge, and expertise about colored gemstones. The ICA GemBureau Middle East will offer members equipped business center facilities, administrative staff, and promotional support to conduct GemBureau activities. Open to all ICA members and members of the regional and international gems trade, GemBureau Middle East will host ICA member meetings and will be the centralized point of access in the region for all matters related to ICA. It will also represent the association at relevant trade shows and industry events.
“GemBureaus allow the ICA to more effectively further our Association’s mission, strengthens our direct contact with our members, and provides our members access to the materials and services that improve their businesses,” said Douglas Hucker, ICA CEO. “To accomplish this, we rely upon the generous material support provided by ICA members like AV Globale.”
