Cassandra Harris, owner and Managing Director of Diamond Events Management Group, and her team are leading experts in the field of events management, weddings,
destination management, and corporate events. She said, “I mentioned my dream to open an events management company to my boss and he supported my endeavours fully and as a result my contract was extended by a year as Digicel’s events management company. That’s how Diamond was formed.” “This was Diamond’s first major contract and Digicel became our first client,” she said. “Digicel represents our level of professionalism and dedication to get the job done.” The young Caymanian entrepreneur further described the ethos behind her company: “We also have an interesting aspect to the company. I have been in foster care all my life and I have had great people in my life that have helped to develop me into the person that I am today.” She said, “My background really speaks to the saying, the community raises its children in need.”
Knowing what it is like to grow up in the foster care system, Ms Harris said, “I understand the needs of every child in foster care and the hardships we face within society. I have been so blessed and I need to give back.”
