Features of the Workshop

A follow-up to Colin Hession's successful series of Management Briefings in Europe and the U.S.A. last year, this Workshop is essential for those who want to get a wider view of the European personal care market. Particular emphasis will be placed on considering the strategic issues facing manufacturers in the major personal care markets of Europe.

The Chairman will present comprehensive data, identify and predict trends, and draw a series of conclusions about European personal care markets and the key players. This is a Workshop, not a lecture, and delegates are actively encouraged to participate at every stage.

The Workshop is based on a highly-acclaimed series of meetings held over the last few years and will aim to involve participants in debate and discussion of the key issues. To ensure the maximum delegate benefit and participation in a comfortable and informal environment, the number of delegates will be limited to a maximum of 20. Data and key conclusions will be supported by an easy-to-follow colour slide presentation. Full documentation will be provided in the form of a detailed binder of key charts and tables.
