Winners of the 2023 Golden Leaf Awards accept their trophies in Seoul

The winners of the 2023 Golden Leaf Awards accepted their trophies during a ceremony on Sept. 20 in the Conrad Seoul hotel—the site of this year’s Global Tobacco & Nicotine Forum. This year’s competition stood out due to a record number of entries and, according to the judges, an unusually challenging selection process as a result of the high quality of submissions.

This year’s winners are:

  • ANDS, which was recognized for its Slix single-use e-cigarette
  • Alliance One India Industries, which was recognized for its efforts to empower women in India
  • Vaporesso, which was recognized for its Vaporesso COSS technology.
  • The ICCPP Group, which was recognized for its across-the-board commitment to delivering cutting-edge technology.
  • The Center for Agricultural Transformation, which was recognized for its efforts to help diversify Malawi farmers’ income streams.
