The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) is converting all its paper reports to digital form by 2025, starting with its most popular report - the GIA Diamond Dossier®.
Designed to further strengthen consumer protection, the shift will begin in January 2023 with the digital launch of a “more secure and convenient” GIA Diamond Dossier®, which is powered by a fully reimagined GIA App.
“Digital reports from GIA build on our decades of innovation and move our consumer protection mission forward,” said GIA President and CEO Susan Jacques. “This important transformation allows GIA to offer consumers a truly modern and engaging experience while helping our industry progress toward a more sustainable future.”
The conversion of all GIA reports to digital form will save 20 tonnes of paper and 18.5 tonnes of plastic each year and reduce transportation-related carbon emissions, according to GIA.
“GIA uniquely combines industry-leading research, product development and grading expertise to fully leverage the power of AI and cloud technology,” said Pritesh Patel, GIA senior vice president and chief operating officer.
