Also at the conference is Christian Bardin, president of CBA Associates, who will feature in the Insightful Industry Leaders panel, and was selected for similar reasons to Baxter.

Bardin was the president of cosmetics brand Neutrogena, and Meyer Rosen, president at Interactive Consulting and chief scientific adviser & director of technical programming at HBA, told CosmeticsDesign.com USA he ‘had to be there’ due to his experience and successful career progression.

The HBA Global conference takes place on September 28-30, 2010, with Baxter’s keynote address on Tuesday, September 28, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. in the Special Events Hall of the Javits Center in New York.
