The International Gemological Institute (IGI) has hired Avi Levy president of its North American division, replacing Jerry Ehrenwald.
Levy has 30 years of experience in diamond sourcing, manufacturing, product development, brand partnerships and wholesale trade. “I look forward to leading the New York-based team, growing our current relationships as well as forging new strategic alliances, with a concentrated focus on gaining further recognition and expansion of the IGI global brand. It is an honour to have the opportunity to redefine the significance of an IGI certification and bring a new sense of trust and transparency to the end consumer,” he said.
Jerry Ehrenwald has served as IGI North America president and CEO since 1991. He will launch the lab-grown diamond trading platform LGDEX.org.
