What’s on

To mark the Rentrée SFC, this edition of JEUDIS [BY SFC] will feature two talks, held exclusively in French and in person:

Longevity: a new societal narrative

Presented by Mr Pascal PORTES (INGR’INNOV Consulting), who will explore the role of cosmetics in this context. Longevity reflects a profound shift in our relationship with ageing. The cosmetics industry is now called upon to reinvent its promises at the intersection of health and beauty. A strategic analysis will help us understand the factors that are redefining the market.

> Pascal Portes

Biomimicry and cosmetics

Presented jointly by Ms Fabienne SEBAOUN (MIMÉTIQUE) and Mr Richard DANIELLOU (AGROPARISTECH), who will discuss the intersection of academic research and industrial innovation. Through a collaborative research project, they will demonstrate how the study of the skin has led to the development of new cosmetic concepts, opening up unprecedented opportunities for more effective and responsible innovation.
