The 2023 Skin Microbiome & Cosmeceuticals Congress: Europe explored the burgeoning field of skin microbiome research and included case studies focusing on a range of skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, acne, allergy, wounds, beauty, scalp, immune system and anti-aging as well as the progress of clinical trials of microbiome-based products being developed to fight these diseases.

“liked the combination of science and business”
“from an academic perspective, it was nice to see how people are commercialising
their research”
“a diverse mix of different stakeholders: academia, industry”

The 6th Skin Microbiome Congress is collocated with the 12th Microbiome & Probiotics R&D & Business Collaboration Forum: Europe which has a reputation for providing an outstanding networking experience in which new collaborations between industry and academia are forged to better translate research into clinical trials and microbiome friendly products.

Sustainability

At Global Engage we are at the beginning of a project to make our meetings more sustainable. Last year we joined ISLA – a body created to accelerate the event industry’s transition to a sustainable future. Our goal is to measure and record the CO2 emissions of our meetings, with the ultimate goal of reducing them as far as practicable before looking at offsetting them.

Details of the green policies at the World Trade Center Rotterdam can be found here. https://www.wtcrotterdam.com/en/about-wtc/sustainability. A practical example of their efforts is the WTC is heated and cooled using a hot and cold storage system in the ground. In addition, all electricity used is certified ‘green power’. Finally, the car park was recently renovated with LED lighting.

In addition to carefully selecting meeting venues, we have made some other changes.

Gone
Plastic badge holders have been replaced with card name badges attached to a lanyard. Return your lanyard to the registration desk when you leave so it can be reused.
Printed conference documentation and agenda. All the meeting information is now available on an event app. Make sure you have it downloaded to your devices in time for the meeting. Get Agorify on Google Play and Apple App Store.

Changed
You will have some great food choices while you are with us but we have worked with the caterer to increase the proportion of plant-based items. Our aim is that you have some great meals, whilst with us, but with less environmental impact by the time you leave.

What you can do
An international meeting does involve travel but where it is practical, please consider more sustainable alternatives to flying. The app will also have a discussion space to arrange ride shares, so if you’re local or staying at a different hotel make use of it to cut the number of journeys being made.

Offsetting
To offset the carbon caused by attending a meeting please look at these three projects in the Netherlands.
https://treesforall.nl/en/projects/het-groene-woud/
https://treesforall.nl/en/projects/twente/
https://treesforall.nl/en/projects/leersum/
Our analysis suggests that last year attending a two-day conference produced .65 tonnes of C02e per person which can be offset for approx.€12 per person. All Staff attending the meeting will be offset.

Social Responsibility
Where we have consent from our expert speakers the presentations will be actively promoted to developing nations and students as a free resource.

Our commitment is to make sustainable choices wherever we can.
