10th ERPA ANNUAL SUMMIT
In 2026, European Cosmetics Responsible Person Association (ERPA) annual conference formerly known as the CRCC enters a new chapter — with a new name, an expanded agenda, and a sharpened purpose. Now presented as the ERPA Annual Summit, this evolution reflects the growing demand for clarity, dialogue, and collaboration across the regulatory and scientific landscape of cosmetics compliance.
This year, the Summit finds its home at Leiden University, the oldest university in the Netherlands and one of Europe's most historic centers of scientific and medical advancement. The setting underscores the event’s renewed commitment to rigorous, evidence-based learning grounded in academic excellence and regulatory insight. What remains unchanged is the mission: to provide a platform where regulatory authorities, scientific experts, and industry leaders come together to tackle the practical challenges of cosmetics compliance from evolving expectations around CPSRs and RP qualifications to the practical application of NAMs in safety assessments.
