51st TOBACCO WORKERS' CONFERENCE
Knoxville, Tennessee USA
January 15-17, 2024
Conference Organizing Committee
TWC has proudly been a staple in the tobacco industry since 1937. Since its inception, the Tobacco Workers' Conference (TWC) has been hosted and organized by a single university or entity, with a rotation through the tobacco states, and periodically in Canada. As our industry continues to evolve, so is our organization. Therefore, it was decided that beginning with the 48th TWC (2018), the conference organization would be managed by an inter-university committee representing various states, tobacco types and academic disciplines.
This Conference Organizing Committee is responsible for the oversight of the conference as a whole. The Technical Program is managed by an associated Program Committee composed of Chairs, co-Chairs of the five sections that make up the conference. The members and of the “Program Committee” can be found on the "Contact Us" page.
