Our client, Altria, has launched a new open innovation portal to accept, filter, and assess outside submissions for new ideas, technologies and advancements in reduced risk products for adult smokers and vapers. You can visit Altria’s Open Innovation Portal here: http://bit.ly/2A1TGBw
Altria’s Open Innovation Portal offers a single location for individuals, startups and other organizations to send their ideas into Altria, the Altria Center for Research and Technology, and Nu Mark, an innovation company focused on developing and marketing a portfolio of superior reduced risk products that adult smokers and vapers may choose over cigarettes. Altria now has a streamlined process where each submission goes through the same company-approved legal process and agreement. Ideas are vetted and filtered along pre-approved categories and qualifications, assessed, and if qualified, passed along to the appropriate team at Altria or Nu Mark.
Altria is actively seeking innovations in the next generation of reduced risk products, including heat-not-burn, e-vapor, and other nicotine-containing products.
