Would you like to expand the potential opportunities of sustainability with beauty or burgers?

Join us to find out about:

  • Upcycling Cosmetic Product Waste with Innovation – Aligned with Shiseido Group’s global Sustainable Beauty Initiative, Shiseido Asia Pacific is seeking innovative ideas on how their end of shelf life products could be upcycled meaningfully to create new products with new value for what would otherwise have been discarded.
     
  • Reducing Food Waste via Innovative Solutions and Smart Design – In light of changing dining lifestyles of customers post-pandemic, Burger King Singapore is looking out for designers to explore the multiple uses of packaging and innovative solutions that preserve the quality of the dining experience, reduce food and packaging waste while optimising the investment in material for doing so.
