About Cannabis Conference 2020

Cannabis Conference 2020, presented by Cannabis Business Times, Cannabis Dispensary, and Hemp Grower, will bring industry stakeholders together to engage the biggest opportunities and challenges facing the legal cannabis market. The three-day event will be held at Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nev., September 1-3, 2020.

Cannabis Conference continues to build upon the successes of previous events and returns with education for both cultivators and retailers. It also will once again expand its educational offerings with a track dedicated to the cultivation and sale of hemp and hemp-derived products. The conference will feature in-depth educational programming on cannabis cultivation and business operations, as well as the most informed industry perspectives on retail management and customer engagement. The Cannabis Conference exhibition hall will feature industry-leading technologies, solutions and services for the professional cannabis cultivator and retail businesses.

This premier industry event will offer unprecedented insights into the dynamic cannabis space at a time when business growth and legalization are intersecting in new markets almost every day. Growers and dispensary operators from all levels of management and ownership will receive actionable takeaways to help ensure their companies are successful.

The educational program for Cannabis Conference is developed by professional cultivators and industry leaders who comprise the 2020 Cannabis Conference advisory board, in partnership with the editorial team behind Cannabis Business Times, Cannabis Dispensary and Hemp Grower. Cannabis Conference has made its mark with both attendees and exhibitors with its unparalleled educational sessions and excellent networking opportunities.
