The industry-first event will follow a varied programme of interactive discussion across three days, with innovation and sustainability as a source of commercial advantage for cosmetics manufacturers its focus.
Various networking opportunities, a round-table industry discussion and a two-day conference programme with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Will Smith, founder of King Of Shaves and Dr. Liliana George, executive director of corporate innovation and sustainability at Estée Lauder, will provide some of the event's highlights.
The programme aims to bring the international cosmetics industry together to share best practice and innovatory developments, and to foster peer-to-peer debate amongst cosmetics business leaders and strategists, according to events director Christina Wood.
It looks to “help bridge the gap between cosmetics development and cosmetics marketing for organisations that want to fuel consumer-focused and sustainable innovation across their whole business – not just in terms of the products they create, but the way those products are brought to market,” she told Cosmetics Design.
