According to BAT, The Omni™ is mainly aimed at scientists, public health organizations, regulators, policymakers, and investors. It gathers the latest progress made by BAT in Tobacco Harm Reduction, with the goal of helping adult smokers transition to smoke-free alternatives by providing products with lower risks compared to traditional cigarettes.


The "Omni™" report consists of nine chapters, discussing key issues related to tobacco harm reduction and providing evidence from the past decade of global efforts to reduce tobacco-related harm.


BAT has stated that its goal is to have 50 million new tobacco product users by 2030, with the revenue from these products accounting for 50% by 2035.


At the same time, BAT also acknowledges that in the process of promoting a smoke-free world, they face many challenges, including opposition from regulatory agencies and non-governmental organizations, market sales restrictions, heavy regulatory frameworks, industry research being questioned, and public misunderstandings about the risks of nicotine and smoke-free products. The company emphasizes that it will continue to reduce the health risks of traditional tobacco products through science and innovation.
