Diamonds and their related products have widespread applications in industries such as aviation, aerospace, automotive, rail transportation, CNC machinery, equipment manufacturing, marine engineering, energy, semiconductor materials, 3C (computers, communications, and consumer electronics), and jewelry. The global market size of synthetic diamonds and related products surpassed 80 billion USD in 2022, and it is projected to reach 100 billion USD by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate exceeding 7%. Diamond products have gained significant attention in the jewelry industry, while their exceptional performance in optics, thermodynamics, electronics, and other fields has attracted interest from research institutions and industrial organizations worldwide.

Against this backdrop, the Superhard Material (Industrial Diamond) Association of China, CMTBA, is proud to initiate the International Conference of Diamond Industry. With the theme "Gathering the Advantages of the Industry Chain and Creating the Future of Diamonds", this conference encompasses various events, including the Diamond Summit Forum, the 6th China (Zhengzhou) International Abrasives & Grinding Exposition, the 2023 International Lab-Grown Diamond Fair, and the 2023 International Laboratory-grown Diamonds Design Competition. These activities aim to bring together influential scientists and entrepreneurs in the diamond field from all around the world, facilitating academic lectures and high-level discussions on technological advancements, industry trends, and hot topics within the diamond domain.

We hope that the International Conference on Diamond Industry will serve as a platform for relevant institutions to explore academic frontiers, exchange technical achievements and address engineering challenges. Your presence at the conference would be highly appreciated.
