The second annual California Cannabis Business Expo in San Francisco has come to an end after 3 days of networking, pitches, expos, and debates.With the lively debates from Day 1 still inciting murmurs across the attendees, the 3rd and final day of the expo had a strong focus on lectures, expos, and meet-and-greets. The conference organizers, MJIC Media, did a grade-A job of keeping the conference balanced and informative with legislators, innovators, producers, and consumers. They even made sure to keep the perspective full-circle by specifically inviting anti-legalization leaders to round-out the discussions.
We tuned into the Twitterverse to bring you a curated tasting of everything the California Cannabis Business Expo had to offer!
Vendors and networking were both in abundance.

Spotlight presentations afforded brands a chance to increase their exposure and, hopefully, meet their next investor.

With an ever-changing regulatory landscape, keeping up with things like taxation and licensing can be a full-time job. Fortunately, the conference had some great knowledge downloads from professionals like Mike Parnes to keep us all up to speed on all things red-tape.

The California Cannabis Business Expo was nothing short of a massive success. MJINC truly outdid themselves, making sure to put an emphasis on level-headed debates, information aggregation, and networking portals.
Thank you @MJICInc for an incredible conference in SF. @GWCpro was honored to attend and speak on Land Use and Zoning #cannabiscompliance
