The behind the scenes at Young Diamantaires

About Us

The Young Diamantaires project was launched in 2016 at the 37th World Diamond Congress in Dubai as a discussion group.  With now over 500 diamond industry members from all around the world and a number of chapters around the world, we represent the future generations of the diamond industry. Our members come from many different cultures and backgrounds but share a common interest in diamonds as our primary source of income.

Redefining the Next Generation

The overwhelming response from around the world has shown us that this initiative was long overdue.  Young Diamantaires from all the major diamond centres have identified a need to communicate with each other taking on challenges and leading the trade into the future with an aim to redefine our industry for generations to come.

The Faces Behind our Success

We Couldn’t Do It Without Them

RAMI BARON

Our Why

The initiative was conceptualised by Rami Baron, Former Executive Member and former Chairman of the WFDB’s promotions committee and former President and Vice President of the Diamond Dealers Club of Australia.

Rami identified a need to create a medium and ultimately a platform for the next generation of diamantaires to communicate their ideas, passion and inspiration that our industry needs to bring us into the new century.
