For 2017, NATO is planning a new series of one-day regional retail education seminars located in key areas of the country. The first NATO Regional Education Conference will be held on January 18, 2017 at the Villas of Grand Cyprus in Orlando, Florida. The agenda includes informative presentations on FDA retail tobacco regulation compliance, tobacco product marketing trends, tobacco industry financial update, a legislative and FDA regulatory update, and one-on-one meetings between key manufacturer sponsors and retail attendees. Each of these NATO educational conferences will include a sponsorship opportunity for NATO manufacturer and distributor/supplier members.
