RAPAPORT... The Diamond Producers Association (DPA) has hired a New York creative agency to work with it on kick-starting the appeal of diamonds to young people.

The DPA, a consortium of miners including ALROSA, De Beers and Rio Tinto, has appointed Mother New York help identify "how the unique promise of diamonds can connect with a new generation," the organization said in a statement November 18.

The move follows DPA’s appointment of Sally Morrison as managing director of marketing in October with responsibility for all of the organization's marketing activities, including the appointment of an agency partner.

"The appointment of Mother New York is the next step in building world-class marketing capabilities to support the DPA’s mission of growing long-term demand for diamonds," DPA chairman Jean-Marc Lieberherr said. "Over the next few months, the DPA will work closely with Mother New York to develop a powerful marketing strategy."

ALROSA vice president Andrey Polyakov, a member of the DPA's board, said the group was impressed by the "innovative and impactful work [Mother New York has] produced for important lifestyle brands that matter to millennials."
