💎 From Idea to Prototype 💎

At our January Social Night, we had the pleasure of seeing something truly creative from one of our own.

GIA Alumni Luke introduced us to his gemmology-inspired board game, MOHS MADNESS — a fun, educational concept built around the science we all know and love. Seeing the prototype in person, sharing feedback, and watching fellow professionals engage with it was such a proud moment for our community.

This is exactly why spaces like ours matter.
Ideas grow here.
Conversations turn into collaborations.
Support turns into momentum.

When you’re part of GIA Alumni Ontario, you’re not just attending events — you’re surrounded by people who understand your passion and champion your creativity.

Luke, we’re cheering you on and can’t wait to see MOHS MADNESS hit the next level 🚀
