The two-day congress will focus on 4 major topical themes:
- From raw materials to finished products. New assessment methods for analyzing and controlling cosmetic materials, from raw materials to finished products.

- Intelligent, connected beauty tools for personalization. The latest advances in AI and smart tools that can be adapted and developed for cosmetic science, for diagnostic purposes.
The congress brings together the world's leading measurement and cosmetics specialists, including four keynote speakers who will address the main themes of the plenary sessions prior to the 21 oral presentations.
