Recently, 2FIRSTS and the Independent European Vaping Alliance (IEVA) jointly announced a strategic partnership to promote the coordinated development of the Chinese electronic cigarette supply chain and the European electronic cigarette consumer market. The IEVA is one of the most influential electronic cigarette association organizations in the world and is deeply involved in the formulation of electronic cigarette policies in the European Union. 2FIRSTS is a globally influential vaporization technology media and think tank institution that has already launched websites in Chinese (2firsts.cn), English (2firsts.com), and Russian (2firsts.ru), covering industry practitioners worldwide.


2FIRSTS has announced a strategic partnership with IEVA to focus on areas such as member services, EU regulatory policies, market access, and environmental protection. Europe is one of the most important markets for e-cigarettes worldwide and serves as an industry trendsetter, with its regulatory policies, popular product categories, and market state having a significant global impact. The partnership between 2FIRSTS and IEVA aims to further promote compliance and healthy development of the e-cigarette market in Europe and enhance the level of internationalization in the Chinese e-cigarette supply chain, contributing to the prosperity of e-cigarette trade between China and the EU.

The event will feature policy presentations, live market information broadcasts, offline activities, and more, all aimed at enhancing Chinese businesses' understanding of the EU market. Following their successful "Russian Market Week" event in January, this is another major initiative from 2FIRSTS to kick off the year.
