The International Colored Gemstone Association (ICA) and the Brazilian Gems and Jewellery Trade Association (IBGM) are delighted to announce that the 20th ICA Congress will be held in Brasilia, Brazil, from May 19 to 22, 2025. The event’s theme, “Gems for Generations”, will emphasize the importance of sustainability throughout the colored gemstone supply chain and building consumer confidence ensuring a lasting legacy for the global gemstone industry.
Following the success of the 19th ICA Congress, held in February 2023 in Dubai, UAE, where over 150 delegates from 25 countries gathered to explore the “Future of Coloured Gemstones,” this upcoming edition will continue fostering dialogue on the evolving landscape of the colored gemstone market. With the support from our hosts IBGM, this marks the third time Brasil has hosted an ICA Congress, providing an ideal platform for knowledge-sharing and networking among global industry professionals.
Damien Cody, President of ICA, stated that our industry is undergoing a period of rapid transformational change, and it is vital that all sectors are involved in helping to shape the future for the generations to come. “The ICA Congress Brazil 2025 is a great opportunity for the colored gemstone industry to join together and what better place than in Brasilia, a modern city renowned for its culture, design and architecture. Centrally located in gem-rich Brazil it is also the perfect starting point for the ICA post-congress tours.”
Roseli Duque, President of IBGM, shared her excitement, stating, “Hosting the ICA Congress Brazil 2025 is a great honor and an opportunity for Brazil to showcase its rich gemstone legacy to both national and international audiences. The theme, ‘Gems for Generations,’ perfectly aligns with Brazil’s dedication to sustainability, ethical practices, and ongoing quest for excellence within the gemstone industry.”
The ICA Congress is recognized as one of the most important events for the colored gemstone industry. The Congress will include keynote speeches, panel discussions, and networking events designed to address critical issues facing the gemstone community today and in the future.
