Join Our Beauty By The Sea Symposium
The Beauty by the Sea Symposium, set to be held in the picturesque locales of Monaco and Nice, is a groundbreaking event that will unite the realms of ocean science and the cosmetic industry for the first time. This symposium will serve as a celebration of the synergy between marine innovation and beauty, highlighting the vast potential of the blue economy.
The event will bring together key stakeholders from the Canadian, French, and Monégasque blue economy sectors. Attendees will include industry leaders, researchers, policymakers, and entrepreneurs who will gather to discuss the myriad challenges and opportunities associated with expanding the blue economy, with a special focus on the cosmetic industry. The symposium aims to foster collaboration and innovation, paving the way for sustainable practices and groundbreaking advancements.
Among the companies presenting at this event will be seaweed growers, who will showcase how their sustainable harvesting techniques can provide valuable ingredients for cosmetic formulations. Packaging companies specializing in plastics will demonstrate their innovations in reducing environmental impact and improving recyclability. Labs that test for cosmetic product effects on water and aquatic environments will share their findings and methodologies, emphasizing the importance of environmental safety in product development. A highlight of the symposium will be a round table discussion about the future of the industry. This session will bring together experts from various sectors to explore emerging trends, regulatory challenges, and opportunities for growth within the blue economy. The conversation will focus on how the cosmetic industry can adapt to and benefit from these changes while promoting sustainability and innovation. In addition to the round table, there will be a mini boot camp designed for those looking to enter the blue economy. This boot camp will offer practical insights and guidance on the benefits of participating in the blue economy, including access to new markets, sustainable practices, and potential partnerships. Participants will learn about the economic and environmental advantages of integrating marine resources into their business models.
The Beauty by the Sea Symposium will expand on the United Nations Ocean Conference in Nice in 2025, building on the momentum and global dialogue initiated by this significant event. By bringing together the best minds and leading companies from Canada, France, and Monaco, the symposium promises to be a transformative event. It will not only celebrate the beauty and potential of our oceans but also chart a course for a more sustainable and innovative future in the cosmetic industry and beyond.

Spotlight on Our New Partners - Le Paysan Marin
Le Paysan Marin is committed to studying, promoting, supporting, experimenting with, and implementing regenerative aquaculture practices and production methods. The organization aims to explore innovative approaches that contribute to the sustainability and resilience of marine ecosystems.
Its mission includes contributing to the relocalization and restructuring of a coastal, perma-industrial aquaculture production network, known as Perma-côte. This initiative seeks to develop resilient ecosystems and industrial chains in response to the climate crisis, ensuring sustainable and proportionate coastal production. Regenerating marine ecosystems and promoting sustainable practices are seen as essential for maintaining climate loops, securing food for future generations, and sustaining coastal human activities. Le Paysan Marin focuses on positioning marine operators as key players in integrated management, relying on nature-based solutions. Additionally, the organization supports coastal territories in developing and financing restoration projects that are integrated into the socio-economic fabric of coastal communities.
Le Paysan Marin assists coastal economic actors in developing turnkey projects that combine ecological engineering, food production, and the enhancement of environmental services. The goal is to create comprehensive solutions that address both ecological and economic needs. The organization facilitates the creation of research-action projects and citizen science initiatives centered around low-tech approaches. It also works on establishing funding solutions that enable the deployment of regenerative marine solutions, ensuring they are both practical and sustainable. Committed to building a community of engaged actors around cooperative projects, Le Paysan Marin focuses on setting up shared production and commercialization methods, fostering collaboration and mutual support among stakeholders.

Our Projects Together
A central component of the project is the creation of a dynamic marketplace within the Blue Economy Startup Studio, which will enable individuals and small businesses to co-sell marine raw materials and scale their operations. This marketplace will be tailored to the needs of small to mid-scale aquaculture operations and will be supported by tools and resources designed to help participants scale efficiently. A key feature of this marketplace is the integration of the ChemBox for marine ingredients and packaging, which will showcase innovative marine-based raw materials and sustainable packaging solutions, serving as a valuable resource for brands seeking to incorporate marine elements into their products. Training and development are also critical to the success of the Blue Economy Beauty Project. The project will focus on developing B2B-centered training programs that educate companies and investors on the potential and future of the blue economy, with a particular emphasis on regenerative aquaculture. This will involve the creation of digital training modules covering key aspects of the blue economy, as well as organizing week-long intensive onsite training sessions that combine theory with practical experience. Intrapreneurial methodologies will be introduced to guide participants through customized business journeys within the regenerative business landscape. To enhance the global impact of the project, efforts will be made to build and strengthen international partnerships that support the mission of the Blue Economy Beauty Project. Relationships will be established with international clusters and networks to expand the reach of the Blue Economy Startup Studio, fostering cross-border collaborations that further the project's objectives.
A comprehensive marketing campaign will be launched to raise awareness about the blue economy and attract investors to the Blue Economy Startup Studio. This campaign will include the development of a strategic marketing plan that highlights the benefits and opportunities of the blue economy. The Beauty and the Sea Forum will serve as a flagship event to promote regenerative aquaculture initiatives and the Blue Economy Startup Studio, featuring expert panels, product showcases, and networking opportunities. Additionally, the Blue Economy Startup Studio will be promoted through digital channels, industry events, and partnerships with relevant organizations. The implementation plan for the project involves clearly defined roles and responsibilities. The Canadian Cosmetic Cluster will be responsible for engaging corporate partners, promoting the marketplace, leading the development of training programs, and managing the ChemBox for marine Ingredients and packaging. Le Paysan Marin will provide expertise in aquaculture, support the development of training systems, coordinate onsite training sessions in France, and contribute to the organization and execution of the Beauty and the Sea Forum.
The governance of the project will be overseen by a steering committee composed of representatives from the Canadian Cosmetic Cluster and Le Paysan Marin. This committee will be responsible for overseeing the project's implementation, addressing challenges, and ensuring that objectives are met. Additionally, a reporting and monitoring system will be developed to track the progress and outcomes of the Blue Economy Beauty Project, with regular updates shared with stakeholders, partners, and investors to ensure transparency and continuous improvement.
