The industry’s first virtual trade event offering the latest product development innovations and information will take place on 21 September 2011.
Re-Connect, presented by HBA Global, will be a one-day business event for beauty and personal care manufacturers, from any part of the world, to learn about the latest innovations in packaging, raw materials and ingredients, and private label services from the convenience of their desktop.

The HBA Global Re-Connect educational component will platform thought leaders who have the knowledge and expertise to take product development to the next level and expand the bottom line. Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with other virtual attendees, including exhibitors and speakers, through real-time chat forums and social networking opportunities. The virtual event will be supported by a comprehensive resource centre where attendees can download product information from suppliers as well as review speaker handouts. Founding sponsors of the event are Ampacet, a global manufacturer of colour and additive masterbatches, and TricorBraun, a leading source of rigid packaging. “We are excited to debut this virtual event and be able to create a worldwide on-line environment that will allow those in the industry to gain knowledge, share information and interact with each other, without leaving their office,” said Jill Birkett, brand director, Beauty & Wellness.
