Lab Grown Diamonds Biggest Disruptor in the
Ladies and Gentlemen in Pawnland!
It is great to be providing this update on our recent and upcoming activities.
I have to begin by thanking our followers both here on our web pages and social media fronts and also through active participation in our game-changing programs that we have been introducing to the industry by many of our followers. The community is global and whole new worlds of opportunities continue to open up for us as an industry.
It is through the support of our growing community that we can continue to deliver up high-level educational and economic benefit programs and enjoy doing them.
As most of our followers know we just completed our 2nd annual International Pawn Symposium & Conference down in the Cayman Islands. This year’s event was also seemingly epic in its nature and we will be blogging more on that subject later, but let’s just suffice to say that with the line-up of subject matter we had with some great food, great friends, great atmosphere, fun and adventure and more, it was fabulous. The 5-Diamond service of the Ritz Carlton in the Caymans is the finest I have experienced anywhere in the world today. Our attendees and guests absolutely loved the resort and much more. From a production stand point they were flawless and top-shelf all the way.
For our attendees who attended the refinery tours and examined the special economic zones, duty and tax free corporations, offshore investment opportunities and much more, stay tuned, PCG is developing a high level industry consortium that promises to be revolutionary. Opportunities about us all.
On the next horizon we have the following:
Focus Group Meeting – October 1st – 4th Myrtle Beach SC
Our next Industry Focus Group meeting coming up is in Myrtle Beach this coming week of October 1st. We will be touring the world-famous “Dicks Pawn” in Myrtle Beach for our second session meeting for this Peer Group membership this year.
