Proceeds from the event will benefit DEF’s “Diamonds Do Good” mission, which supports higher education and corporate social responsibility efforts in Africa’s diamond-producing communities.
Other sponsors of the event include Signet Jewelers Ltd. and Rio Tinto, both of which are premier presenting sponsors.

Tiffany is an existing DEF Empowerment Circle Partner, a year-long partnership program that also supports DEF’s mission of youth education empowerment and leadership development in nations where diamonds are mined.
“Doing good is not an afterthought, it’s part of Tiffany’s DNA and it is through support of organizations like DEF that we are able to impact society and contribute to the sustainability of communities where we source these precious gems,” said James Fernandez, Tiffany’s executive vice president and chief operating officer.
