During DMCC’s visit to this week, Executive Chairman and CEO Ahmed Bin Sulayem met with leading diamond industry representatives at the Bharat Diamond Bourse for a high-level exchange, joined by Neil Ventura, Special Advisor, Precious Stones, DMCC.
With UAE–India trade exceeding USD 100 billion in 2025, the visit reflected the depth of the economic relationship between the two countries, and the central role Mumbai and Dubai play in the global diamond trade.
The Bharat Diamond Bourse stands as one of the world’s largest diamond trading hubs, home to over 2,500 companies and forming the backbone of India’s diamond industry. Alongside the Dubai Diamond Exchange, both are members of the WFDB - The World Federation of Diamond Bourses, and have grown together as key pillars of the global trade.
That connection is reflected in Dubai today, with a strong presence of Indian diamantaires operating out of Almas Tower at the heart of DMCC’s diamond ecosystem.
Discussions focused on strengthening collaboration across the diamonds and precious stones sector, and on how the Dubai Diamond Exchange continues to support Indian traders and manufacturers through world-class infrastructure, secure trading frameworks, and seamless access to global markets.
