The VVIP
Dinner

27 September 2026 · ITC Ratnadipa · Colombo

The evening

A Strictly Limited Gathering Reserved for the Few

After a full day of dialogue and discovery at the Conference, a carefully selected group of guests was invited to continue the conversation in an intimate, private setting.

The VVIP Dinner was not simply a meal - it was an environment built for the kind of conversations that cannot happen in a conference hall. Reserved for global delegates, international speakers, policy makers, and a curated group of the most significant figures in the gem industry and the business world.
