Cosmo Virtual Stage brought together trade associations, experts, and cult personalities for the professional channel, united in proposing new solutions for owners and operators of beauty centers and hairdressing salons. The platform hosted live demonstrations of massages and treatments aimed at customers’ psychophysical well-being, insights dedicated to the new communication frontiers, social media opportunities, particularly by TikTok, and a focus on the theme of diversity and inclusivity. There was no lack of updates on the economic situation, with market data for the hair sector and the exposure of the measures needed today to protect the profession.
« This edition of WeCosmoprof has given us very satisfying results, underlines Enrico Zannini, General Manager of BolognaFiere Cosmoprof. Now, we need to look ahead and continue to work to facilitate the recovery. The digital event is complementary to the actual fair experience, but it cannot be the only solution. No platform can replace the value of human relationships and the possibility of testing a new product, a texture, or a fragrance. Our goal is to keep producers, retailers, and buyers in contact in this delicate historical phase, then return to Bologna, in our exhibition center, and strengthen the foundations for a new rebirth for our industry. »
