The Antwerp World Diamond Centre hosted two well-attended “Diamond Power Sessions” on September 17 & 18 at the Antwerp Diamond Pavilion during the Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair focusing on two popular themes – marketing to Millenials and screening for synthetic diamonds.

The Diamond Industry Insights forum began with a presentation on the first theme made by AWDC Communications Manager Karen Rentmeesters. The second part of the session saw a presentation by HRD Antwerp’s Chief Education Officer Dr. Katrien De Corte, entitled “The Real Deal: Laboratory Grown vs. Natural Diamonds”, and another on the new melee screening device (M-screen) by the Director of WTOCD (Antwerp Scientific Research Centre for Diamonds) Yves Kerremans.
