“This Knowledge Webinar on July Birthstone received good response from the trade,” said Manoj Singhania, Director – Education, GIA India. “It was engaging and participants interacted with the instructor to gain knowledge about this beautiful gemstone.”
“I have been a part of many such knowledge sessions by GIA India. All the seminars have always been focused and delivered with great expertise on the subject,” said Prashanth Vummidi, Owner, Prakruthi Vummidi Bangaru Store, Chennai. “The recent webinar on rubies presented a detailed explanation about the gemstone, demystified a few myths and highlighted several facts. GIA has been at the forefront of delivering reliable information and I thank them for this wonderful initiative.”
