Dubai, UAE – Beautyworld Middle East 2024 is set to debut Beauty Beginnings, a new discovery zone created to introduce innovative beauty brands to the Middle East and North Africa markets.

Beauty Beginnings is an unmissable destination where you can discover something different, something ground-breaking, and something you’ve not seen before.”
Kaminov will also lead discussions on expanding into new regions, finding the right business partners, and achieving impressive results through diverse partner outreach. Her Next in Beauty panel on Day 2 will include industry leaders discussing how to choose distribution partners.
