In an era where industries are evolving faster than curriculums, International Institute of Gemology, one of India's most forward-thinking institutions for gemology and jewellery education is redefining jewellery education by placing experiential learning at its core. Reinforcing this philosophy, International Institute of Gemology (IIG) recently facilitated an immersive industry visit for its students to the Bharat Diamond Bourse (BDB), Mumbai the epicenter of India’s diamond trade, along with leading companies including Hari Krishna Exports Pvt. Ltd., Kisna Diamond & Gold Jewellery, Finestar Diamonds, Kiran Gems, and Arham Exports. At a time when the jewellery industry demands professionals who can think beyond textbooks, IIG has long championed a learning model that goes far beyond syllabus-based instruction. The institute believes that true industry readiness lies in a combination of structured learning, observation, interaction, and real-world exposure. This visit was designed to bridge that gap. At Hari Krishna Exports Pvt. Ltd., students engaged with Mr. Hitarth Dholakia, who shared grounded insights on current market realities. He encouraged students to focus on excellence at their level while highlighting a critical entrepreneurial mindset as they grow, the ability to delegate to skilled experts becomes equally important. He left them with a powerful takeaway: “Learning individuals are earning individuals.” At Kiran Gems, students had the opportunity to interact with Mr. Dinesh Lakhani, whose perspective reinforced the importance of industry-academia collaboration. “At Kiran Gems, we truly believe in sharing knowledge and supporting the next generation of our industry. It was a pleasure interacting with the students of IIG. Their curiosity and genuine interest in understanding the diamond trade were very encouraging. IIG is doing a commendable job in connecting classroom learning with real-world exposure,” he shared. At Finestar Diamonds, Mr. Nilesh Chhabria provided a macro view of the industry, discussing the impact of U.S. tariffs and broader global challenges. He highlighted how Finestar continues to stay ahead through focused niche specialization in larger diamonds (3 to 10 carats), offering students a strategic lens on positioning in a competitive market. At Arham Exports, led by Mr. Vidhyut Shah, students gained insights into the operational backbone of the industry, from precision in grading to procurement strategies in melee diamonds. The company’s ability to consistently supply to 350- 400 jewellers across India and international markets demonstrated the importance of systems, scale, and reliability. Adding a strong retail dimension, students also engaged with Kisna through insights shared by Parag Shah, bringing perspective on branding, distribution, and how diamonds ultimately translate into consumer-facing products. Beyond individual organizations, the visit to Bharat Diamond Bourse helped students witness the scale, structure, and operational excellence of one of the world’s largest diamond trading hubs, offering insights into security systems, trade dynamics, and the ecosystem that powers the global diamond pipeline. “This visit was truly an eye-opener. Seeing the entire journey of a diamond in real time, from design to execution, helped us connect everything we’ve learned in class. Interacting with industry leaders and understanding how different departments work together gave us a completely new perspective on how the industry actually functions,” said a student from Zimbabwe; Mr. Tapiwa Chidzodzo, reflecting on the experience. This initiative reflects IIG’s larger vision: “Transforming Gems & Jewelry Education from passive learning to active exploration.” At IIG, students are not just taught gemology; they are immersed in an ecosystem that integrates business strategy, market dynamics, retail application, and evolving consumer behavior. From foundational gemological knowledge to advanced business thinking, the institute’s approach is designed to create professionals who can seamlessly integrate into the modern jewellery landscape. “At IIG, we believe education must translate into readiness, not just awareness,” said Mr. Rahul Desai, CEO and Managing Director of IIG. “When our students step into environments like the Bharat Diamond Bourse, they move beyond observation, they begin absorbing market intelligence, building professional instincts, and seeing the industry through the lens of someone who belongs in it. That is the IIG difference.” As the jewellery industry becomes increasingly complex and competitive, institutions that blend academic excellence with real-world exposure are emerging as true catalysts of growth. With its forward-thinking approach, IIG continues to position itself not just as an educational institution, but as a bridge between aspiration and industry. For individuals and corporates looking to upskill, evolve, or gain a deeper understanding of the gem and jewellery business, IIG offers more than just courses, it offers an experience rooted in real-world relevance. The institute invites aspiring professionals, entrepreneurs, and industry stakeholders to visit its campus, engage with its ecosystem, and explore how education can translate into tangible growth.
