Summary of the 2023 Global Forum on Nicotine (GFN)
On June 24, 2023, the Global Forum on Nicotine (GFN) successfully concluded in Warsaw, Poland.

The Global Forum on Nicotine (GFN), focused on safer nicotine products worldwide, concluded successfully in Warsaw, Poland on June 24, 2023. This tenth edition of the forum brought together advocates, scholars, scientists, policymakers, manufacturers, and distributors of nicotine products to reflect on the challenges and successes of tobacco harm reduction (THR) over the past decade. The participants also discussed the future regulation and direction of e-cigarettes.

 

2FIRSTS and GFN23 formed a strategic partnership, with 2FIRSTS serving as the official media partner for the conference. During the collaboration, 2FIRSTS created official topic pages in both Chinese and English, taking responsibility for comprehensive coverage of the conference proceedings.

These interviews were conducted to disseminate information about the conference to a global audience. The four day conference featured numerous deligates from around the world covering wide topics from communities and regulations on THR to the technologies behind the e-cigarettes.

 

In this conference, 2FIRSTS conducted in-depth interviews and exchanges with industry experts to explore the prospects of the e-cigarette industry. They also shared valuable insights and cutting-edge information on product innovation, technological research, and policy-making, benefiting readers from both within and outside the industry.
