On the first day of the event, 2FIRSTS obtained information about the purpose of FDA's participation. It is understood that FDA's main objective of participating in the exhibition is to disseminate regulatory knowledge to e-cigarette companies, promote key policies related to FDA's regulation of e-cigarettes, and guide e-cigarette companies towards compliant sales practices. Additionally, they are providing free age verification devices to support e-cigarette companies in fulfilling their social responsibilities effectively.
