In Botswana, By Batswana.

Day to day, four years ago, @HBAntwerp was a promising startup making headlines as a newcomer in the diamond industry.
Today, we’re recognized by @FortuneMagazine as one of the world’s most impactful companies — a testament to what commitment and vision can achieve.

Sinds 1 januari is de import van Russische diamant verboden in de G7-landen. België was de drijvende kracht achter deze beslissing. Met dit initiatief plaatst ons land zich in het centrum van een complexe geopolitieke strijd.

Pleased to have engaged in a productive discussion with Minister @carogennez, who serves as Minister of Development Cooperation & Major Cities. We discussed skills transfer, working as a knowledge-based company, and the importance of international #solidarity.

It was an honor to host @OfficialMasisi, @VincentVQ and @teresajedd for a conversation on the sidelines of #UNGA to explore how #HBAntwerp is leveraging innovation and cutting-edge technology to transform the diamond supply chain in Africa and beyond.

Blockchain continuity
A new benchmark

[HBAntwerp @HBAntwerp]

An HB diamond never leaves the closed loop HB Ecosystem. Every diamond is secured in and tracked via the HB Capsule during its transformation from rough to polished. The HB Capsule is the first IoT device to introduce blockchain continuity to the lifecycle of a mineral resource.

[Margaux Donckier @mdonckier]

Let's create a ripple effect.
A new benchmark for natural resources.

[HBAntwerp @HBAntwerp]

HB Capsule is the embodiment of how we shed light on our supply chain and create leverage for mining communities.Collecting +3000 verification points,we show the country of origin how much value is created&how much is staying in the country to help improve lives of its citizens.

[Margaux Donckier @mdonckier]

@HBAntwerp replaces the century-old habit of trading diamonds in a piece of paper with an IoT device.This enables HB to store the 💎,but more importantly all the data created during their transformation from rough to polished. Blockchain continuity, from mine to💍, and afterward

[HBAntwerp @HBAntwerp]

The HB Capsule, your key to certainty.
