Why Attend
We return digitally this year for the Ingestible Beauty Connect summit, bringing together the thought leaders and decision makers involved in, or actively interested in joining, the booming global nutricosmetics market.
With increasing acceptance of the relationship between the gut & the skin microbiome, ingestible supplements to support beauty from within have already been in trend for a short while. However, with the events of the past year, the consumer is now more aware of their health & well-being than ever before. Thus, brands are continuing to launch such products which speak to a more holistic approach to beauty, and in doing so – many enter the competitive world of supplements & ingestibles.
Ingestible Beauty Connect will bring together the leaders of the cosmetics & nutrition industry to explore the latest science & formulation insights, focus on customer engagement & sales strategies, and finally, to provide you with an incredible opportunity to connect & forge partnerships with the multinationals, retailers, investors, indie brands & service providers who could help you on your business journey to conquer this fragmented market.
