IFSCC Congresses bring together representatives from IFSCC Member Societies and others once a year to discuss cosmetic science on a grand scale…with a global perspective. It is the unquestionably the most important global cosmetic conference devoted exclusively to science.
At an IFSCC Congress you will hear the latest research findings, discuss market trends, discover new products and raw materials, share best practices, meet new colleagues and reconnect with others. Scientists, suppliers, academics, business owners and product developers will all be there to discover or display the latest beauty industry innovations.
There are parallel podium sessions at a Congress, along with hundreds of posters on display throughout the event. Additionally, there is an exhibition hall featuring the newest offerings of suppliers from around the world.
Congresses are three days of science. The evening before the science program starts is an Opening Gala; the evening of the last day is the Closing Gala, during which the IFSCC Awards are presented. An optional evening social event is offered, generally an outing featuring the culture of the Host Society.
IFSCC Congresses allow Attendees an invaluable opportunity to meet other Scientists from outside their usual orbit. Indeed, it is often said that chance meetings and impromptu discussions, in addition to the science presented, are the main reasons to attend an IFSCC scientific event.
