COSMETIC VALLEY is working on one of the innovation challenges of the Cosmetics sector, that of Naturalness , and regularly offers to bring together the agricultural sectors with that of the cosmetic perfumery industry, round tables to expose the blocking points, ambitions, needs, solutions, etc.
This challenge is also that of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region, the leading agricultural region in France, whose "Territorial Strategic Area of Excellence" is on "Naturalness and the valorization of the plant cell".
This is how the structuring project " Agricosmetics " was created, which requires the involvement of several regional actors in several actions.
In order to source more easily locally , Nouvelle-Aquitaine is seeking to enhance its plant co-products from the food industry, agriculture and forestry to give them added value both in the cosmetics sector and in the health, cosmetics and specialty chemicals industries (paints, glues, detergents, biosolutions, materials, etc.) and even nutraceuticals.
👉 It is in this context that ACD Nouvelle-Aquitaine, in partnership with, among others, the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region and COSMETIC VALLEY, is offering you a day of meetings and discussions to discover innovations in this field and initiate collaborations between different sectors.
👉 On this occasion, the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region will present specific measures to support the development of these innovations .
👉 Don't miss this unique opportunity to explore the opportunities that the bioeconomy offers for a sustainable industry !
