California Beauty Brand Accelerator: Australia and India
Take your beauty brand global. GO-Biz is launching a new accelerator to help California beauty and personal care companies enter two of the world’s fastest-growing beauty markets: Australia and India.
What the Program Offers
The accelerator moves participating companies from market education through individualized coaching, regulatory support, and business matchmaking.
- Market foundations. An online training series covering market overview, regulatory landscape, cultural context, and sales channels for both Australia and India.
- Export readiness diagnostic. A one-on-one market fit analysis of your product line, informing your selection of the Australia track, the India track, or both.
- Individual coaching. One-on-one support on legal and regulatory requirements, product localization, and market entry strategy, including help with cosmetics registration and required certifications.
- Custom matchmaking. Direct introductions to distributors, retailers, marketing partners, and influencers, with virtual meetings arranged and prepared for you.
- A go-to-market plan. Every participating company finishes the program with an individualized written strategy for their selected market or markets.
Why Consider This Program
- Guided entry into two complex regulatory environments: CDSCO and BIS in India, AICIS and the TGA boundary in Australia.
- Direct access to in-market experts and established distributor and retail networks.
- A cohort limited to 20 California beauty brands, ensuring individualized attention.
- Ensure your business is ready to join California’s trade pavilions at either Australia Beauty (August 2027) or Cosmoprof Mumbai (December 2027).
