This week, the Global Cosmetics Cluster and its members, Beauty Cluster, Cosmetics Cluster UK, Canadian Cosmetic Cluster, Cosmetic Valley and the Independent Beauty Association, gathered in Paris for two key international events, strengthening collaboration within the global cosmetics ecosystem.

Cosmetic Victories Ceremony highlights international innovation

The week began with the Cosmetic Victories Ceremony, held at the Maison des Polytechniciens. The event highlighted the GCC’s role in increasing the international visibility and impact of the competition.

The 2026 edition demonstrated a strong global reach, with more than 25 countries represented among submitted projects. Three international winners were awarded, coming from Japan and Portugal.

The GCC warmly thanks its members for their continued engagement and support in fostering innovation and promoting excellence in the cosmetics industry worldwide.

Networking at in-cosmetics Global Paris 2026

The following day, GCC members met again at in-cosmetics Global Paris 2026, at the Cosmetic Valley France Pavilion, during a friendly “Apéro des terroirs”.

This informal gathering provided an opportunity to exchange insights, strengthen relationships, and continue building international cooperation in a relaxed and collaborative atmosphere.

Strengthening global collaboration in cosmetics

These two days in Paris reflected the strength of the GCC network and its shared commitment to innovation, international cooperation, and knowledge sharing across the cosmetics sector.

The GCC looks forward to continuing to strengthen these connections and to shaping the future of the global cosmetics industry together!
