A team representing the International Gem Tower project is attending the 2011 World Federation of Diamond Bourses Presidents' Meeting, which opens today in Dubai and runs through Wednesday, April 13.

On Tuesday, April 12, IGT partner Joseph Lipton and Senior VP of Development Raizy Haas will meet with WFDB delegates and brief them on the project's construction and sales status.

WFDB President Avi Paz thanked Lipton and Haas for attending, saying that the new tower is "going to set a new standard in the New York diamond district" by allowing the diamond, gem and jewelry companies located therein to "operate in a highly secure and accommodating environment."

Representatives of diamond companies interested in purchasing IGT space are also welcome to meet with Lipton and Haas during the three-day conference.
