Initiatives In Art And Culture (IAC), the Gold + Diamond conference is staged in New York every July. Celebrating its fifteenth anniversary on July 14th, 15th and 16th, this year’s conference is entitled ‘Eye on the Prize’.
According to IAC founder and president Lisa Koenigsberg, “The Gold + Diamond conference offers a critical opportunity for diverse industry professionals, miners, jewelry makers, researchers, curators and others to engage with what truly matters.”
It’s a timely theme, considering how the gold, diamond, jewelry and luxury goods industries are contending with disruptions triggered by geopolitical tensions, economic stressors, climate challenges, digital transformations and shifting consumer values.
With a welcoming cocktail party at Heritage Auctions on the 14th, the conference convenes on the 15th and 16th in New York’s Bohemian National Hall.
