L'Oréal for the Future, L'Oréal's sustainability program
Our purpose
Since we were first founded in 1909, innovation has always been woven into the fabric of our DNA: allowing us to develop the beauty products, services and experiences to meet the diverse beauty aspirations of consumers worldwide.
As a global beauty leader, we are aware of the transformative power of beauty. For decades, we've harnessed science and technology to offer everyone the best in quality, efficacy, safety, sincerity, and responsibility.
This same pioneering spirit now continues to inspire us to innovate for a better, more sustainable future, where beauty is not only a source of personal empowerment and self-expression, but also a force for positive change.
Our mission
L’Oréal has partnered with the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL)’s innovation team to scout, identify, pilot, and scale disruptive solutions within the beauty industry.
CISL’s extensive network of over 40,000 senior leaders and experts driving impact and deep knowledge in sustainable business models and solutions, will provide pivotal support to selected applicants through an up to 12-month cohort-based programme, facilitating pilot projects and scaling of innovative solutions within the L'Oréal ecosystem.
