EVENTS VAPEXPO MOSCOW THE AWARDS WINNERS - DECEMBER 2017 - This three day event allowed 7,000 guests to attend the stands of 110 device and e-liquid manufacturers, to participate in vaping contests and to compete for the main prize: 200,000 RUB! It was the 18th exhibition for organisers Smile-Expo, and its major feature was the division into B2B and B2C formats for the first time. The first B2B day included efficient networking, while B2C days provided a relaxed atmosphere for communication involving the vaping community. “We wanted our guests to feel comfortable at the exhibition. Therefore, we organised several lounge zones across the pavilion,” the organisers stressed. A new feature of the event was the Mech Mods Alley, allowing vaping device lovers to examine novelties as well as to buy exclusive or popular mech mods. Traditionally, there was an awards ceremony of the best vape industry players and Vapouround Magazine was delighted to be asked to be the judges once again. The standard of the entries were very high indeed and the winners across 12 categories were as follows: Best Mod: Crassus mod by Svarog Mods Best Design E-liquid Bottle Design: Taboo by Taboo Best Dessert E-liquid: Dinner Lady Strawberry Custard by Vapeliga Best Drink E-liquid: Vape Menta by La Liga Best Tobacco E-liquid: Three flavors by Vape Sfera Best Original Taste E-liquid: Trix World by Smoke Kitchen Best Fruit E-liquid: Ice Paradise – Black & Red by Uncle Vova Presents. In addition, the following winners were chosen by online voting and voting from attendees at the expo: Best YouTube Channel: Korobka Best Stand: Vapeliga Best Blog: ParNyxa Best Shop: Vape Shop Parobar Best Online Shop: redvape.ru. At the final vaping exhibition of 2017, VAPEXPO Moscow, thousands of vapers experienced hundreds of e-juice flavors and devices, got acquainted with new contacts, met established contacts, took part in contests and enjoyed give aways. It was a great event. WHEN WILL THIS HAPPEN AGAIN? The next VAPEXPO Moscow will take place on June 15-16, 2018! See you then! 150 | VM15
