Jennifer Grant, Founder of Empyri, a brand of clean cannabis skincare products, shares her enthusiasm for the Women + Cannabis Workshop: "We've curated a panel of brilliant women from all sides of the cannabis industry to share their experiences - from holding positions of leadership to our top 10 cannabis products for women. 20-30 year old women are the fastest growing segment of legal cannabis consumers. This, paired with the fact that cannabis benefits are sex and age dependent, makes women-specific cannabis education so important. It's going to be a great conversation with lots of room for folks to share their experiences and their curiosity."
"As a proud Londoner, I'm thrilled to represent Indiva to share our story and engage with the local London cannabis community," says Melissa Kurek, Vice President of Operations at Indiva. With more than 15 years' experience in the CPG industry at some of the world's largest food, confectionary, and beverage companies, Kurek is bringing a wealth of knowledge to The Cannabis Supply Chain: Overcoming Obstacles panel. "Some of the challenges we face in the supply chain are not unique to the cannabis industry so the opportunity to collaborate and share insights with the community is invaluable."
"Greenway Greenhouse is proud to support innovation, education and community building through the inaugural Cannabis Wiki conference and expo in London, Ontario. The rich agricultural history of the region is a perfect backdrop to host cannabis innovators locally and abroad. Our team looks forward to learning, speaking and networking with new partners and associates," said Jamie D'Almontie, CEO, Greenway Greenhouse Cannabis.
Budtenders attend free
Cannabis Wiki knows all about the integral role of our hard-working budtenders, which is why they're offering a free ticket just for them, paired with unique experiences that are designed to assist these employees by improving their understanding of the plant, and teaching them how to expand and be leaders in the industry within the stores they work.
Andrea Meharg will show budtenders and other canna-curious folks how to harness the power of the plant and how they can achieve financial success simply by talking about cannabis and embracing what consumers really want. This certified Cannabis Educator and Coach will also reveal new ideas, fun ways to play with the plant, and so much more.
