🎤 “I genuinely believe in a world without cigarettes—a future where cigarettes are an obsolete relic of the past; an item found in museums, not corner stores. But apart from museums I truly hope that we're not going to see them anywhere else. The reason I believe in this is because, at Philip Morris International we know the science. #Smokefree products are simply better alternatives and adult smokers should be encouraged to switch to them if they do not quit tobacco and nicotine use all together, which is the best option”, says Oggie Kapetanovic, President heat-not-burn at Philip Morris International in an interview with the journalist Georgi Milkov.

🎤 "10 years ago we introduced a very special product to the market – a product that changed the life of millions of smokers around the world. To transform the whole industry, we first had to transform from the inside – we had to change the way we work and to gain new skills and capabilities. But most importantly, we had to change our culture – to become more agile and more consumer centric. And that’s exactly what we did", said Denys Strobykin, general manager of Philip Morris Bulgaria during the discussion on stage at the #Forbes DNA of Success Forum & Awards. 🔹 Our Head of People and Culture Anna Gabrovska added: "Sharing common values is extremely important for us at Philip Morris.
