The Australian Society Of Cosmetic

Chemist 53rd Annual Conference

Premium Sponsorship Package

CHAIRPERSON'S INTRODUCTION

The Australian Society of Cosmetic Chemists is extremely excited to be preparing for the 53rd Annual Conference and we invite you to Ride the roller coaster of A-beauty innovations with us at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Center May 11th – 13th 2021.

Set in the heart of Broadbeach The Gold Coast Conference and Exhibition Centre will be the location of the ASCC 53rd Annual Conference from 11th-13th May 2021. Themed “Riding the rollercoaster of A-beauty Innovations, our theme has three main pillars: “A-Beauty”, a play on the term K-Beauty, A-Beauty, or Australian beauty, is the minimal skincare movement based around combination routines, simplified formulations and innovative Australian native ingredients and products made in Australia. “Riding the roller coaster” will take us through the emotions of using a cosmetic, with a focus on neuro-cosmetics and how product makes the consumer feel. Finally, "Innovations” we will showcase the best cutting-edge science the cosmetics and home care sector has to offer. The 53rd Annual ASCC Conference is looking to capture the interests of all our industry's greats, whilst enjoying the beautiful backdrop of the Gold Coast.

The organising committee has been working hard behind the scenes and we have already locked in two excellent guest speakers

Firstly Dr. Patrice Bellon from Cosmetoscent in France comes recommended by the IFSCC and will be riding the rollercoaster with us. Dr.Bellon will help us explore how a cosmetic product can cause an elevated change in emotion and how the contribution of Neurosciences can enhance the users experience of a product.

Then Ben Lazzaro from Made in Australia will show us how A-beauty innovations, developed, manufactured and marketed as “Made in Australia” can benefit the brand and the Australian industry.

We look forward to hearing from both Dr Bellon and Mr Lazzaro at our annual conference.

Get in quick as a Premium Sponsor to ensure you maximise the opportunity to show attendees your organisations latest innovations and get valuable exposure for your company leading up to the Conference in May 2021.

We look forward to your company’s involvement in making the ASCC’s 53rd Annual conference the best to date and to ride the rollercoaster of A-beauty innovations with you as a sponsor.

PREMIUM SPONSORSHIP

To take full advantage of the planned intricate and extensive marketing strategy outlined earlier, it is highly recommended that interested organisations get involved early. The earlier you are involved; the more promotional opportunities will be available and the greater the potential success and effectiveness of your sponsorship campaign. If allowable an opportunity will be given to the Premium sponsors to visit the ASCC 2021 conference venue and be shown the amenities. This will allow for pre-conference planning to maximise your company’s effectiveness. This will be arranged by the ASCC committee but will be at the sponsor’s own costs.

Premium sponsors for the ASCC 2021 conference will be extensively and prominently acknowledged before, during and after the conference. To make the most of the promotional opportunities and to ensure you do not miss out, get in early as Premium Sponsorships always sell out fast!
