On October 22, 2026, Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna stopped in New Delhi for a new edition of its international roadshow, organized in collaboration with ITA - Italian Trade Agency. The initiative was dedicated to promoting Made in Italy excellence and strengthening trade relations with the Indian market, a strategic region for the global development of the cosmetics industry.

Hosted at The Imperial Hotel, the event brought together leaders from the worlds of beauty, lifestyle, design, and innovation for an evening celebrating the expertise and creativity that have made Italian excellence internationally recognized.

The roadshow showcased a range of sectors representing Italian excellence, bringing together companies and institutions united by a strong identity, innovative spirit, and international outlook. Among the brands featured were Vespa, Aprilia, and Technogym, alongside beauty and professional haircare companies such as Rica Italia, Naturica, and Luca Piatelli Luxury Salon. The program also highlighted the worlds of education and design through the participation of IED - Istituto Europeo di Design and SDA Bocconi.

This cross-sector format was designed to tell the story of Made in Italy not only through products, but also through the expertise, research, and creativity that support its competitiveness in international markets.

The initiative provided an important opportunity for networking and dialogue between Indian market professionals and representatives of the Italian industry, encouraging discussion around new business collaboration opportunities. Cosmoprof's presence in India is further strengthened through Cosmoprof India, the B2B event within the international Cosmoprof network held in Mumbai, bringing together companies, brands, manufacturers, distributors, and buyers from across the entire beauty supply chain.

 

The next edition of Cosmoprof India will take place from December 10 to 12, 2026, at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai, reaffirming the exhibition's role as a leading platform connecting the Indian beauty industry with international markets.

The complementarity between Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna and Cosmoprof India is a distinctive feature of the network: two events designed to foster business development, enhance market-specific opportunities, and provide companies with new avenues for growth and international expansion. Within this context, the New Delhi roadshow further strengthened engagement with local industry professionals, highlighting the synergies between the events and the collaboration with ITA - Italian Trade Agency.

The New Delhi stop is part of the international program of initiatives leading up to the next edition of Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna, scheduled from March 18 to 21, 2027, when the exhibition will celebrate its 60th anniversary.  Sixty years of meetings, innovation, and business opportunities have helped build a global platform serving the cosmetics industry worldwide.

Through the roadshow in India and the established presence of the Cosmoprof network in the country, BolognaFiere Cosmoprof reaffirms its commitment to creating connections between markets and businesses, promoting the excellence of Made in Italy, and generating new business opportunities for stakeholders across the international beauty industry.
