After Milan comes Prague: On 17 and 18 April 2026, EVO NXT will move to Forum Karlin in the Czech capital. In 2023, Messe Dortmund launched EVO NXT, this modern Business Festival with a unique atmosphere that perfectly suits the dynamic industry for next-generation products (NGP). The move to Eastern Europe was a conscious decision - one for a growing market in the field of alternative nicotine products.

 

EVO NXT 2026 Offers Unique Insights Into A Dynamic Industry

 

EVO NXT provides the ideal setting for companies to network and actively shape developments in the world of nicotine alternatives. Manufacturers, retailers, distributors, associations, and experts from science and politics come together to exchange ideas on the latest market trends, regulatory developments, and product innovations. The Business Festival not only offers valuable insights into changing markets, but also into the different regulatory landscapes around the world – with a special focus on the opportunities in Eastern Europe.

 

The trade show in Prague will offer a unique opportunity to gain a knowledge advantage and learn directly from international market leaders and associations. In a high-caliber conference program, top manufacturers and industry experts will share their knowledge on future trends and offer practical solutions for companies. Participants can look forward to exciting discussions and exclusive insights into the latest technologies and products.

 

The conference program brings together high-profile international voices from politics, regulation, industry, market analysis, and trade. Renowned experts from organizations such as the UK Vaping Industry Association (UKVIA), the Independent European Vape Alliance (IEVA), and the Nordic Nicotine Pouches Alliance (NNPA), as well as the Global Institute for Novel Nicotine (GINN) and Tobacco Europe, have already confirmed their participation. Well-known industrial companies such as British American Tobacco (BAT) have also pledged their support. The program will be complemented by in-depth global market insights from TobaccoIntelligence and Euromonitor. The retail sector will also be prominently represented, including expertise from the European Confederation of Tobacco Retailers (C.E.D.T.) and relevant stakeholders from the local Eastern European market.

 

Another highlight: The hybrid event “Eyes on Brussels” will be continued this year. The interactive discussion, which connects speakers, participants on site, and those watching the live stream online, took place for the first time as part of EVO NXT 2025. Visitors were enthusiastic about the innovative format organized by Tobacco Europe, the European umbrella organization for manufacturers of tobacco and nicotine products. Listeners can expect a first-hand update on the most important political developments in Brussels and throughout the EU.
