The Beauty to Business Summit and Polo Innovation Day events will return on October 21 and 22, 2026, to the Fiera di Bergamo Exhibition Center. This strategic alliance reaffirms Bergamo's position as an essential meeting point for both the Italian and international cosmetic manufacturing industry.
With the motto "Beauty Make Sense," the event adopts an intelligent and vertical format that integrates a trade exhibition, technical conferences, and focused B2B meetings between buyers and industry professionals. The synergy between both initiatives covers the entire value chain: from ingredients and raw materials to third-party manufacturing, primary and secondary packaging, automation, machinery, and final brands.
The choice of Bergamo responds to its position as a first-class logistical and international hub, located in the heart of northern Italy, a region that concentrates more than 50% of the country's cosmetic companies.
This strategic location boosts the international projection of the event and reinforces the leadership of the Lombard Cosmetic Valley in the global market. The Fiera di Bergamo will host the event in an area of more than 170,000m2, with open-plan pavilions of 6,500 m2 each.
Beyond the exhibition area and B2B meetings, the event will offer a program of conferences, seminars, and discussion panels led by international experts. The presentations will address the most relevant challenges in the sector, such as the integration of artificial intelligence, the evolution of international regulations, sustainable packaging, and new production and R&D technologies. Likewise, the event will host the presentation of the Innovation Beauty Awards, awards that recognize the excellence and technological development of suppliers in the cosmetic sector.
The visitor profile includes cosmetic manufacturers, purchasing managers of distribution chains, R&D managers, consultants, beauty channel distributors, and B2B e-commerce operators.
