Over the past decade, the GCC has built an international community grounded in commitment, trust and the sharing of expertise. Strategic meetings, economic missions, webinars, professional networking events, company visits and participation in international trade shows have all contributed to strengthening ties between leading cosmetics ecosystems around the world.

Organised around three major geographical regions — the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific — the network continues to expand its international reach, broaden its geographical representation and develop collaborative projects that benefit clusters and their member companies.

As part of COSMETIC 360 WEEK, COSMETIC VALLEY brought together its international partners in Chartres to celebrate this milestone. Fourteen international clusters took part in the events organised throughout the week.

The anniversary celebration was held in connection with the Prolégomènes of the Maison de la Cosmétique, the future global headquarters of COSMETIC VALLEY. This symbolic milestone marks a new chapter in the network's history. The previous year, international partners had each received a key to the Maison, reflecting the collective spirit behind this future hub.

Beyond the anniversary itself, the gathering celebrated ten years of collaboration, shared projects and lasting relationships between international stakeholders across the cosmetics industry.

Looking Ahead: The Next Decade of Cooperation

As the GCC celebrates ten years of achievements, the network looks to the future with a shared ambition: to strengthen international partnerships, foster innovation and create new opportunities for clusters and companies across the global cosmetics industry.

Ten years of connections. One global community. A shared vision for the future of cosmetics.
