LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- (BUSINESS WIRE) --
MEDIA ADVISORY
What: André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer of Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI), will address Boston’s business community and leaders during an invitation-only event at the Boston College Chief Executives Club, a long-recognized forum for conversation and connection. The speech comes days after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration confirmed that IQOS, PMI’s electrically heated tobacco system, is appropriate for the protection of public health and authorized it for sale in the U.S.
Calantzopoulos will present the extended efforts PMI is making to replace cigarettes with a portfolio of revolutionary products and engage with the area’s leading business representatives in a call to action to unsmoke the world.
Just as Boston’s private and state sectors prioritized their investment behind positive social change to build a culture rich in academics, health and wellness, and innovation, PMI has invested significantly in scientific research, product development and manufacturing facilities—to the value of over $6 billion USD as of December 31, 2018—to transform the public health landscape of tomorrow.
When: May 3, 2019
12:00 pm (noon) EST
Where: Wharf Room, Boston Harbor Hotel
70 Rowes Wharf
Boston, MA 02110
Who: André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer, Philip Morris International Inc.
