5th Scientific Summit on Tobacco Harm Reduction

The 5th Scientific Summit on Tobacco Harm Reduction opened in Athens on September 21st, 2022, for two days with attendance - physical and virtual - of over 240 participants from 41 countries.

PMI has been going through a major transformation that led them to claim that they now want to "deliver a smoke free future". Since 2008, the company has spent more than $9 billion as investment in the research and development of smoke-free products.

"We are building PMI's future on  smoke-free products that-while not risk-free-are a far better choice than cigarette smoking", they say on their website.

The company aimed to be a majority smoke free business by 2025.
