This year, seven students from Soongsil University's GTEP project team led by advisor Cho Seung-ho participated in Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna 2023 with three companies: Chamos Cosmetics, Banobagi Cosmetics, and Paket Cosmetics. The students provided assistance to the companies through interpretation, export counseling and marketing.
Students Kim Ga-hyun and Gil Young-eun of the GTEP project team who supported Chamos cosmetics by introducing its products, such as foot peeling packs and mask packs, said “During the exhibition, we could experience a lot through various meetings and consultation processes with buyers.”
Students Park Ho-heum, Lee Young-seo and Choi Soo-bin of the GTEP project team, who introduced Paket Cosmetics' main products, communicated with more than 400 buyers at the exhibition. “Participating in the exhibition was a good opportunity to understand global cosmetics trends, and we want to participate in other exhibitions to expand our knowledge further,” they said.
