Through the partnership, IGI aims to reach a wider audience and reinforce the importance of informed, confident decision-making in diamond and precious gemstone purchases
Mumbai: The International Gemological Institute (IGI) has teamed up with team Gujarat Titans (GT) as an associate partner for the current edition of the T20 cricket tournament, the Indian Premier League. The association is part of IGI’s ongoing effort to strengthen consumer awareness, transparency, and responsible decision-making in the jewellery industry. By leveraging the scale and influence of the Gujarat Titans, IGI aims to make diamond certification more accessible and relevant to a wider audience.
As part of the association, IGI’s logo will appear on the Gujarat Titans uniform throughout the season. Speaking on the partnership, Tehmasp Printer, Global CEO, International Gemological Institute, drew a parallel with the game. “Just as cricket relies on the Decision Review System (DRS)technology to ensure that every decision is accurate and beyond doubt, IGI brings that same standard of independent review to every diamond it certifies. The 4Cs – Cut, Clarity, Carat, and Colour – form the foundation of our work, enabling transparency and trust. Gujarat Titans reflect the same discipline, consistency and pursuit of excellence that sit at the core of IGI. Through this partnership, we intend to reach a wider audience and reinforce the importance of informed, confident decision-making in diamond and precious gemstone purchases,” he said.
Gujarat Titans COO Colonel Arvinder Singh welcomed the tie-up, saying, “Gujarat has always been closely linked with craftsmanship, precision and a strong legacy of excellence, and this association reflects a shared commitment to these values. At Gujarat Titans, we look to collaborate with partners who stand for trust, integrity and consistency in their domain.”
