Although Belgium has just wrapped up a thrilling election Sunday, election fever is peaking again in Antwerp. The reason? Another important election moment on June 17 and 18: the election of the members of the Board of Directors of the Antwerp World Diamond Centre (AWDC).
Six candidates representing the Trade sector are up for election early next week. Antwerp’s diamond industry stakeholders have the opportunity to cast their votes and select the candidates they believe deserve a place on the AWDC Board of Directors. The elected candidates will play a crucial role in devising and implementing AWDC’s policies, shaping the future of the diamond industry in Antwerp.
To assist voters in making an informed choice, all candidates were given the chance to introduce themselves and answer four key questions about their priorities for the Antwerp diamond industry and how they plan to contribute if elected.
