2. Welcome to the Global Cosmetic Compliance Summit
We understand that staying up-to-date with ever changing global regulations
and guidelines, as well as current and forthcoming standards set forth around
the world have many organizations questioning their preparedness for global
compliance deadlines in 2015 and beyond.
After holding the Cosmetic Compliance Summit in September of 2014, we received overwhelming feedback and insight
surrounding the many challenges that you are facing in understanding regulatory guidelines of some of the leading and
emerging personal care and cosmetics markets of the world such as; European Union, Latin America, China, Asia/Pacific,
South Africa, and India.
This event is so timely to the industry because it is positioned to not only address where your organization stands in its global
compliance journey, but how you are continuing to look at the scope of regulatory affairs that pan across the globe. At the 2015
Summit, we will be posing pivotal questions regarding how strong your organizations efforts are to benchmark globally, and
continue to help you either expand into new markets or continue to establish your brands presence.
If you can answer yes to any of these questions, you cannot afford to miss out on attending this summit:
• Have you considered the future of your organization by building a comprehensive compliance system to be prepared for
global regulatory updates?
• Is your organization working towards eliminating variances of your products going into China, as compliance initiatives
continue to mirror the European Union standards?
• Have you considered the business benefits behind a successful compliance initiative program that will continue to protect
your consumers?
• Would you benefit from hearing first hand accounts of successful product launches in emerging markets such as
Middle East?
• Is your company looking to stay up-to-date on the latest “drug” vs “cosmetic” specifications in the United States, in order to
avoid significant claims and labeling errors?
• Are you looking for specific guidance on recent Canadian regulations for your products market entry procedures, and post
market surveillance?
• Are you interested in hearing over 12 hours of in-depth and candid case studies with a global focus from some of the
leading companies in the industry?
Our goal is to provide you with powerful examples of how industry stakeholders of personal care and cosmetic companies
around the world have built existing frameworks for compliance, and are continuing to explore new strategies that will safeguard
against market volatility and risk
We encourage you to visit our exhibitors on site who can give you further details of the many ways that can save your
organization time, money, and even help to map a timeline of your brands own specific goals for global markets.
This is your opportunity to come face to face with the largest compliance implementations that this industry has ever faced, and
roll out a successful traceability program within your organization. Don’t get left behind in 2015.
I look forward to meeting you in New York City.

September and August 2014 with additional guidelines for the elimination of certain parabins and
triclosan specifically.
These Amendments have increased the regulation on nanomaterial in cosmetic products in addition
to increased safety assessments. This interactive workshop will walk you through the latest updates to
(EC) 1223/2009 and provide further clarity into the European Market.

natural wealth, adaptability to market trends, high production volumes, experience in the development
of proprietary brands, and international certification that support their production processes. In
