R&D in the spotlight at in-cosmetics Global

A host of new initiatives unveiled ahead of this year’s event in Amsterdam from 17-19 April In-cosmetics Global will land in Amsterdam this April 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 some of the world’s leading analysts, formulation experts and consultants.
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 organisers 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 Group, a series of ‘silent’ tours will zero in on two of the industry major trends –Biotechnology Actives and The Future of Anti-Ageing. Each tour offers 20 spaces and participants will be provided with wireless headphones, through which prominent technical consultant and cosmetic chemist Rouah Al-Wakeel will guide them through the most compelling ingredients and sophisticated technologies being launched at the show. The tours have been designed to ensure busy R&D professionals efficiently navigate the event’s mustsee areas, exhibitors and innovations, ensuring they leave in-cosmetics Global brimming with ideas for their future formulations.

The secret to winning formulations
Since its launch at in-cosmetics North America in 2016, the in-cosmetics Formulation Lab has become renowned across the world as a unique opportunity to learn from top suppliers about how to maximise the potential of their ingredients. Taking place in a purpose-built lab, the interactive Formulation Lab sessions bring together the industry’s most highly skilled experts to deliver a series of hands-on demonstrations. The presentations will guide delegates through overcoming common development challenges and let them in on the secrets to creating winning formulations.

International inspiration
More than 700 suppliers will be present at the RAI, armed with their latest innovations and representing more than 100 countries. Dedicated regional pavilions, including Brazil and South Korea, will sit on the show floor, marking the international relevance and global appeal of this event – the largest in the in-cosmetics calendar.

After Party and Awards
Industry professionals are also invited to the in-cosmetics Global After Party on 17 April, which is new for 2018. Attendees will enjoy an evening of music, food, drink and entertainment, as well as celebrating the achievements of the in-cosmetics Global Award winners.
