With attendance up 30 percent from the prior year, the College of Cosmetics brought together the most innovative and creative minds in the business, packing a year’s worth of information into two education-filled days. Entrepreneurs and industry veterans heard from more than 30 distinguished speakers about technical, regulatory and legislative updates and practices in the cosmetic and personal care industry gaining practical, business-oriented advice.
Topics covered included: What’s New with Cosmetic Testing and Claims, Leveraging Social Media, and California Safer Consumer Products Regulation, among others.
In addition, ICMAD’s Technical Regulatory Forum offered workshops on what’s next in the cosmetics and personal care industry in international markets including Latin America, Mexico, Canada, China, South Korea and The United Arab Emirates.
An agenda for the full program can be found on ICMAD’s website.
“Our Technical Regulatory Forum and inaugural College of Cosmetics offered valuable knowledge and insight to our members, businesses small and large that are industry innovators. I believe this kind of collaborative environment will have a lasting impact in furthering the advocacy for the industry,” said Pamela Busiek, ICMAD president and CEO. “The wealth of experience and expertise of our speakers is a tremendous asset to every attendee. We believe they will benefit from this all-inclusive view of the global cosmetics and personal care industry.”
