Key note Speaker 2011:
Karin Frick, GDI Gottlieb Duttweiler Institut, Rüschlikon, Switzerland:
From lifestyle to healthstyle
The central theme for tomorrow's cosmetics market will be health, active living and well-being - lifestyle becomes healthstyle. Those that succeed in combining science and emotions and making body care simpler, greener, socially fair, sensuous and stylish will win out in the healthstyle market.
Karin Frick is the director of Think Tank and a member of the management board of GDI Gottlieb Duttweiler Institut. As economist she does research in the field of trends and counter-trends in industry, society, and consumer behaviour.
Horst M. Rechelbacher Intelligent Nutrients Inc., USA:
Trend market USA
While developments on the cosmetics market had long been characterized by the motto ' go green', a new concern over the toxicity of cosmetics has attracted a lot of attention lately.
Horst M. Rechelbacher established the cosmetics label AVEDA two decades ago. He then set up his own organic farm in Wisconsin to grow the raw materials for his natural cosmetics. He now lives in Wisconsin and New York City.
