About this Event
Beyond the Jewelry Case
An introduction to natural diamond ownership
Most people only ever see diamonds in a jewelry case. This complimentary reception goes further. Join Dan Granquist, attorney and tangible asset advocate, and Mario Hoffman, CEO of STIG USA, for a clear and unhurried introduction to natural diamonds as a physical asset.
What you will experience
The presentation (5 to 6 PM each day): See natural diamonds up close and learn, in plain English, how natural diamonds are graded and documented, what ownership involves, and which questions are worth asking before any decision.
Complimentary one-on-one conversations (10 AM to 5 PM each day, by appointment): Sit down privately with Mario Hoffman, CEO, to ask your questions directly.
Light snacks and beverages: Relax, meet the people behind the offering, and take your time.
PLUS a Giveaway: One winner will be drawn Monday evening, October 19, from everyone who registers for this event and has created a free STIG Rock account. You do not need to be present to win. The prize is a $250 Starter Solution Plan with no immediate cash value. No purchase necessary.

Who this is for
Anyone curious about natural diamonds beyond jewelry, whether you are just starting to learn or already have questions you want answered. Diamonds may not be the right fit for everyone, and we will say so. The goal is not to convince everyone. It is to help the right people make an informed decision.
