Research and innovation

Yesterday, April 11, the Board of Directors of COSMETIC VALLEY endorsed the labeling of 7 new innovation projects which had received a favorable opinion from the Scientific Expertise Committee of the cluster!

These innovation projects concern safety, naturalness, materials innovation:

- evaluation of content/container interactions,

- development of a sea cucumber industry for the production of cosmetic active ingredients in French Polynesia,

- characterization of biosourced polymers,

- development of the Guyanese oud wood sector and its use in perfumery,

- new eco-responsible UV filters, inspired by nature and functionalized from non-food biosourced sugars,

- digital printing on glass,

- new packaging towards minimalist,

 

These projects concern the Normandy, PACA, Ile de France, French Polynesia, Guyana, Grand Est and Auvergne Rhône Alpes regions. .. and apply for funding from the ANR or France 2030...

Wherever you are, in France, do not hesitate to contact us to benefit from the support of the cluster on the setting up of your innovation projects and their official support of the sector.

TECHNOCHALLENGE: CONTINUOUS FLOW EXTRACTION AND FUNCTIONALIZATION OF PLANT COMPOUNDS

Call for innovation projects - Valorization of aquatic biomass waste and residues

Description

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 waste recovery, aquatic biomass and bio-based systems.

Name of the call for projects : HORIZON-JU-CBE-2023-IAFlag-04: Valorisation of aquatic biomass waste and residues

Submission : September 20, 2023

Budget : €10M - Grant of 60% of eligible costs for for-profit entities and 100% for non-profit entities

TRL: TRL8 at the end of the project

In accordance with the objectives of the circular economy and the "zero pollution" action plan, the proposals selected will facilitate the large-scale deployment of biobased industrial systems. These systems will contribute to the implementation of the new EU strategy for a sustainable blue economy and respond to the EC Communication "Towards a strong and sustainable European algae sector", by demonstrating improved environmental performance, maximum efficiency in terms of resources and energy, and optimal cascading use of biological raw materials, aiming for "zero waste" and "zero pollution" operations.

Cosmetic applications are directly targeted by this call.

Are you developing a project on this theme? Are you looking for a funding 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.

Collective Innovation White Paper for the perfumery/cosmetics sector

COSMETIC VALLEY brought together and questioned the Industrial Scientific Committee of the Sector, made up of around forty companies of all sizes and representatives of different links in the sector, as well as many other French companies. These different players worked together for several months to redefine the challenges and common themes of innovation. These challenges and themes are described in a White Paper, making it possible to set priorities for collective action to boost innovation in the sector.

The themes defined are as follows:

- Digitization of the sector

- New technologies and industrial transfer

- Product development and evaluation

- Measurement and control of impacts

- Sustainable development

- Organic Sourcing

These themes are dealt with in numerous actions carried out by COSMETIC VALLEY and by players in the sector. It gives priority areas to work on in the years to come.

Finance your innovation project on the theme of biosourcing

Among the many calls for projects launched by the European Commission to finance collaborative innovation in Europe, Cosmetic Valley has targeted a very relevant call for projects to develop your research and innovation project on the theme of biosourcing!

Name of the call for projects : HORIZON-CL6-2023-CIRCBIO-02-3-two-stage: non-plant biomass feedstock for industrial applications: technologies and processes to convert non-lignocellulosic biomass and waste into bio-based chemicals, materials and products, improving the cascading valorization of biomass

Filing in two stages : March 28, 2023 (step 1) and September 26, 2023 (step 2)

Budget : 4M€ 100% subsidized by the European Commission

TRL: TRL5

This action targets processes for converting non-lignocellulosic biomass and waste into chemicals, materials and biobased products. Proposals should optimize the recycling of non-wood raw materials with a focus on improved resource efficiency and circularity. They must develop technologies or processes for the upstream treatment and downstream conversion of these materials in order to recover them and expand the portfolio of products resulting from bio-sourced processes. The production of biofuels and bioenergy is outside the scope of this topic. Food ingredients, compounds related to cosmetics and in particular those with properties beneficial to health (nutraceuticals), may fall within the scope, provided that their toxicological and nutritional safety has been assessed and guaranteed at the level of the EU.
