The first 90 minute session included a short talk by Yoram Dvash, Acting WFDB President about the effects of the Coronavirus crisis on the industry and the growing role of online trading. Other speakers included Philippe Barsamian, President of Federation of Belgian Diamond Bourses; Raj Mehta, Director of Rosy Blue; Simit Parikh, CEO of Sim Gems Ltd. and Jean-Jacques Tache, Tache NV, who all gave their take on the importance of a trading platform that is owned and operated by the industry.

Over 500 participants from Antwerp, Hong Kong and other locations took part in the session.
