The Man, The Legend
One of the traditional and most popular events during JCK Las Vegas is the Rapaport Breakfast. It takes place on Sunday morning and features a live, in-person, and broadcast presentation by the man himself, where he delivers his rapid-fire, unvarnished, and riveting remarks on the international diamond industry.
“Now more than ever you must know what is going on and how it will affect your bottom line,” exclaims Rapaport. “Will synthetics continue to take market share from naturals? How will US and G7 sanctions on Russia impact US diamond prices and supply? Will there be profitable demand for socially responsible diamonds? How important is social media when it comes to selling Gen Z? Will China come back? What should you do?”
What should you do? Well, if you’re in Vegas for the show, you should register for breakfast and join the hundreds of attendees who will be there.
Along with Martin Rapaport, this year’s Rapaport Breakfast will feature two guest speakers:
Mmetla Masire, Managing Director of the Botswana government’s Okavango Diamond Corporation that is responsible for selling 25% of Debswana annual $4B rough diamonds production.
Mmetla will discuss the future of natural diamond supply from an African perspective.
and Maksud Agadjani, 47th Street’s super-powerful rap jeweler, with 1.6 billion views on social media. That’s Billion, with a B.
Maksud will discuss the role of social media in the jewelry markets.
Guaranteed
It will be entertaining, and informative. Just be prepared to wake up early on Sunday morning. Breakfast starts at 8.
