To meet its own 2030 sustainability targets, the firm has adopted a foundation model to remix, remake/remodel its global operations

Ortiz was referring to several features of the digitalization:

  • The foundation model will use a large number of formulations and component data points to accelerate multiple tasks, including the formulation of new products, reformulation of existing cosmetics, and optimization for scale-up production.
  • The long-term goal is to facilitate a rethink and redesign of the formulation discovery process: understanding the characteristics of renewable ingredients in cosmetic formulas will help the firm build out more-sustainable product lines with greater inclusivity and personalization for consumers around the world.
