Alone, we go faster, with several, we go further. The Cosmetic Valley has understood this adage since it has just joined the Global Cosmetics Cluster. This new organization brings together 15 cosmetics clusters and associations from around the world. The objective? To increase international collaboration in both business and R&D.
15 professional cosmetics structures from five continents have announced the creation of the Global Cosmetics Cluster. This network brings together the entire value chain of the beauty industry: ingredients, formulation, manufacturing, packaging, finished products, distribution and logistics, engineering/machine tools, assembly lines, testing and analysis/quality control, services, research and training.
Global Cosmetics Cluster represents nearly 3,700 companies. The Cosmetic Valley is president of the board of directors, Beauty Cluster (Spain) is treasurer, Canadian Cosmetics Cluster is secretary and Cosmetics Cluster UK is second.
“Global Cosmetics Cluster was initiated and launched by Cosmetic Valley in 2016 to federate our strengths and resources, share best practices in cosmetics and work on common projects. And this process will be even more important in the context of the health crisis that brings challenges, promoting a balance of power in the beauty sector globally, with competitors, but also new opportunities. The challenges are difficult to overcome. We must face them as one,” says Marc-Antoine Jamet, President of Cosmetic Valley. “I am very tempted to quote Henry Ford, an emblematic figure of a previous industrial revolution who said: coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, working together is success.”
