The Society of Cosmetic Scientists Nigeria (NICOS) is a professional community for cosmetic scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs which was established to promote and encourage education, research and sustainable growth of the Nigerian cosmetics and personal care industry worldwide.
“Working with likeminded organisations, ‘Elevating African Beauty through Science’ is our ultimate mission at NICOS,” say co-founders Grace Abamba and Olusola Ojo.
On Thursday 8 July at 16h00 Nigeria time (GMT+1), the official NICOS Launch Conference takes place online and is supported by sponsors BASF, REDA and Symrise. As a landmark event, entry is free – all you have to do is register through the platform Eventbrite by clicking here. Please share the information with your colleagues and network.
An unmissable event for industry professionals
Nicos has an engaging line up of prominent speakers to provide excellent insight into the Nigerian cosmetics industry from key perspectives, namely research and development with Gbenga Showole from P&G, regulatory matters with Prince Nsofor from NAFDAC, academia with Professor Olayinka Asekun from University of Lagos and product safety testing with consultant, Dr Mabel Iwobi. The presentations will be followed by a live panel discussion with the speakers, joined by Ikpong Imoh from the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria.
Perhaps you want to create your own product range, or you’re unsure about how to get your products safety tested or registered; you may be interested in undertaking research of new cosmetic ingredients. This is an amazing opportunity for registered delegates to ask their important questions directly to our special guests who will be in the same virtual room.
