During the meeting, Alan Zhao warmly welcomed the arrival of the Accorto delegation and expressed appreciation for their professional insights in the field of PMTA compliance. Alan Zhao stated that with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) continuously strengthening its regulation and enforcement of the e-cigarette market, compliance in the e-cigarette industry has become a crucial issue that companies cannot afford to overlook. In the face of market changes, companies must pay close attention to compliance services in order to ensure their sustainable and steady development.

In order to deepen mutual understanding and cooperation, Alan Zhao on behalf of 2FIRSTS presented Tom with the "2024 Global New Tobacco Regulation Report" (English version) produced by 2FIRSTS. The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the current global regulation of novel tobacco products and their development trends, offering valuable insights and guidance to the industry.

 

Tom highly praised 2FIRSTS' professionalism and contribution to the industry's development, and stated that he looks forward to deeper collaboration with 2FIRSTS in the e-cigarette compliance field in the future. Accorto, as a leading provider of PMTA compliance services, has been dedicated to assisting e-cigarette companies in FDA reviews to ensure products can legally enter the US market.

 

This exchange not only deepened mutual understanding between both parties, but also laid a solid foundation for future cooperation. 2FIRSTS and Accorto have both expressed their commitment to working together to promote the healthy and orderly development of the e-cigarette industry, providing global consumers with safer and more compliant e-cigarette products.

 

As a key media and research institution in the e-cigarette industry, 2FIRSTS will continue to leverage its influence within the industry to promote information exchange and knowledge sharing. We will work with partners like Accorto to contribute to the high-quality development of the e-cigarette industry.
