THE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION THAT REWARDS INNOVATION IN THE PERFUMERY-COSMETICS SECTOR!

The 9th edition of the competition is launched! It aims to give visibility to research and innovation work applied to the cosmetics sector as well as to reward exemplary projects that advance the sector.

🏆 Come listen to the testimony of Ophélie Pierre, winner of the academic prize which rewards fundamental research for the cosmetics sector. This young doctoral student is developing a human skin model in order to reproduce skin/cosmetic product interactions in real conditions

You can also try to win one of the 2 prizes:
> The industrial prize to reward start-ups and SMEs, ETIs which present a product development project, technology, service, innovative process , applied or which can be applied to the entire value chain of the cosmetic industry (ingredients , formulas, tests, packaging, retail, etc.)
> The academic prize to reward academic researchers from disciplines such as chemistry, biology, biotechnology, materials, physics, AI, imaging , etc., working on a research project that can be applied to a stage of the value chain of the sector.

How does the competition work?

1️⃣ 𝐕𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐳 𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐥𝐞 𝟑𝟏 𝐣𝐚𝐧𝐯 𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 on the platform ,
2️⃣ A 𝐣𝐮𝐫𝐲 𝐝𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐮𝐱 studies your file and its scientific content,

The profitability of the production of cosmetic products is closely linked to the volume of outgoing compliant finished products.

In order to qualify and reduce waste, it is essential to carry out systematic quality checks online.

How can we check the tightness of our finished products?

ATEQ, world leader in leak testing for assembly lines, has developed a range of industrial quality control technologies.

Focus on a call for projects launched by the European Commission to finance collaborative innovation in Europe!

Cosmetic Valley has targeted this very relevant call for projects to develop your research and innovation project on the themes of testing, the regulatory framework and the use of chemical products.

Name of the call for projects : HORIZON-HLTH-2024-IND-06-09: Gaining experience and confidence in New Approach Methodologies (NAM) for regulatory safety and efficacy testing – coordinated training and experience exchange for regulators (CSA)

Filing : April 11, 2024

Budget : €2M - Funding rate: 100%

Proposals should focus on alternatives to the use of animals for regulatory testing of safety and effectiveness. Applicants should propose activities that bring together developers and users of New Methodological Approaches with European regulators responsible for the safe use of chemicals (e.g. industrial chemicals, pesticides, biocides and cosmetics ) and pharmaceutical products in order to inform on the solutions available and to encourage the construction of a framework on how these New Methodological Approaches could be used most effectively in different decision-making contexts.

Cosmetic applications are directly targeted by this call.

Are you developing a project on this theme? Are you looking for a financing window to support its development?

Cosmetic Valley supports you in setting up projects: identification of calls for projects / funding windows at national, European and international level and in the search for partners.
