Free 3 days in Antwerp! Through our relationship with the World Diamond Federation, GemFind has arranged a limited number of sponsored (paid) visits to the "by invitation-only" Antwerp Diamond Fair. There are no required purchases at the diamond fair. The event is Sunday January 27 to 29, 2013. Complimentary funding includes round trip limousine Brussels airport, 3 or 4 nights stay at the 5-star Radisson Blu Park Hotel, most meals, and GemFind arranged complimentary VIP seats for a special Diamond Gala Evening dinner event.
The Global Ambassador for the World Federation of Diamond Bourses, Howard Pomerantz said "there will be about 80 global prime diamond manufactures exhibiting primarily loose diamonds and certain unique diamond jewelry pieces and that USA attendees will surprisingly find lower market prices at this fair over their traditional buying methods". Howard can even make time for GemFind members to have an afternoon to taste Belgian beers and chocolates, with our compliments.
The small invited USA delegation will meet hundreds of retailers that come from Europe, China, the Russian, the Middle East and Europe. It is an opportunity to meet Jewelers from countries all over the world. If you are interested please call Alex Fertanat at 800-373-4373 ext 111 or write to Howard Pomerantz to learn about the fair and what costs are and are not sponsored at: HowardPomerantz@worlddiamondfederation.org
