In-Cosmetics Global will land in Amsterdam next month for the first time in a decade, bringing with it hundreds of the most innovative personal care ingredients and an in-depth education programme featuring the world’s leading analysts, formulation experts and consultants. Around 9,000 visitors are expected to travel to the Netherlands from more than 100 countries when the event opens on April 17. Over three days, the exhibition will provide a one-stop-shop for manufacturers to enhance business relationships, learn about the latest trends and get a first look at novel ingredients created in all four corners of the globe.
And with global expenditure on research and development reaching almost $1.7 trillion, according to UNESCO Institute of Statistics. this year’s In-Cosmetics Global will home in on R&D to ensure cosmetics scientists, chemists and dermatologists are supported as they embark on this new age of innovation.
What’s New for 2018
Following the huge success of the Focus on Marketing: The Story Behind The Science tours at In-Cosmetics North America 2017, the organizers of In-Cosmetics Global have announced the launch of new R&D-focused tours that will run in Amsterdam.
Exclusively for R&D professionals and sponsored by Mibelle Biochemistry and Novacap, a series of silent tours will zero in on two of the industry major trends – Biotechnology Actives and The Future of Anti-Aging, led by technical consultant and cosmetic chemist Rouah Al-Wakeel.
In another new initiative for 2018, In-Cosmetics Global will hold a half-day Regulatory Conference in partnership with Conusbat and sponsored by ITHOS Global on 16 April at 2pm. The conference will provide tailored content on cosmetics frameworks and regulatory and testing modules in the European Union, United States of America, China and the rest of the world. Delegates are also invited to network at a drinks reception and take part in one-to-one ‘speed meetings’ with the experts.
Cosmetics giants will also go head-to-head in the hotly-anticipated Formulation Challenge, which will hit In-Cosmetics Global for the first time this April. Sponsored by Croda, six leading manufacturers will be tasked with creating an innovative formulation from a box of mystery raw materials in just 90 minutes.
