Summit Events, a leading B2B networking events organiser, today officially announced the dates of the 2016 Sun Protection & Anti-ageing Skin Care Conference Asia. Set to take place on 13 and 14 July at the Hilton Hotel, Singapore, the second installment of the highly anticipated event will be led by a carefully-curated panel of international speakers, and will address the latest and most pressing issues related to sun care and anti-ageing.

Sue Trousdale, Managing Director, Summit Events Ltd, shared, “One challenge that manufacturers and formulators around the world consistently face is in keeping up with the latest industry trends. At our conference, delegates will be able to acquire up-to-date knowledge about a wide range of sun protection and anti-ageing topics, particularly for Asian markets. This is an excellent platform for them to benefit from the knowledge and experience of our panel of established industry experts, and to enjoy various open discussion segments with industry peers.”

Protection from the detrimental and damaging effects of the sun is a major concern worldwide, particularly among Asian cultures where having lighter skin tones is generally sought after. In addition, technologies to lighten skin colouration have been developed and used widely in Asia. In line with this trend, the conference will provide delegates with an update on sun protection methods (ISO and FDA), and up-to-date technologies used to protect the skin from the sun, pollution and other environmental factors. Other topics like methods of measuring benefits of anti-ageing and skin lightening products, and regulations affecting the development, advertising claims and sale of sun protection and anti-ageing products in Asia will also be explored.

A must-attend event for all professionals involved in sun protection and anti-ageing skin care development, testing and claims substantiation, this year’s conference is well poised to suit the likes of R&D managers and directors, dermatologists, marketing and product managers, retailers of sun care products, regulatory affairs personnel, formulation chemists, product evaluation scientists, research scientists, raw materials suppliers, and suppliers of sun product and skin testing apparatus.

Conference delegates will benefit from presentations that cover four principle areas: Sun Damage and Ageing of Skin, Sun Protection and Anti-ageing Skin Care Strategies and Benefits, Regulatory and Consumer Impact and Testing, and Anti-ageing and Sun Care Technologies.
