AD Academy - Innovation

This Academy was just the first of a series of workshops and seminars, targeted directly at the Antwerp diamond companies. Our goal is to provide them with hands-on knowledge and tools to enhance their position in an increasingly competitive business. Each Academy is built around a specific topic; the first edition was all about 'innovation'. This initiative stems directly from the vision and ideas launched in the Antwerp Diamond Masterplan | Project 2020.

Top of the bill was the presence of Sir Richard Branson, innovative entrepreneur par excellence, who even took the time for a meet and greet with members of the diamond community.

During an interactive panel discussion, Branson -- shared his recipe for success with the audience of over 2,000 people. It was a truly unique opportunity to learn a trick or two from superbusinessman and enfant terrible of the business world, Sir Richard Branson.
