Cannabis legal advocate and Executive Director of Los Angeles NORML, Bruce Margolin delivered an inspiring keynote address to attendees. Of utmost importance, he discussed upcoming 2016 legislation that will directly impact cannabis business entrepreneurs. Margolin urged the audience to contribute to the Jack Herer Foundation, who received a portion of proceeds from both the bar and silent auction. Learn more about how you can get involved with current action alerts on the NORML website.
Members of the cannabis industry roamed the event space sampling and savoring hundreds of mouth-watering marijuana infused products ranging from the highly-acclaimed Dank Tank vaporizer to the potent Pirate Candy Chocolate Pirate Puck, pictured below. The Pirate Puck measures two square inches and packs a whopping 120mg of THC. Pirate Candy infuses their chocolates with a proprietary multi-strain Rick Simpson Oil formula. Keep an eye out for their new CBD Living water as well.
Edibles enthusiasts may be looking for new and novel ways to administer cannabis. Ali Fakhri (below), brand ambassador for House of Jane and Seed Series co-founder, shared some unique products that are very enticing including cannabis infused coffee, teas, and medicated creamer.
The delights experienced extended beyond the taste buds. From the perspective of a product marketing expert, the branding exhibited at the event was outstanding. One might expect impressive displays of creativity from cannabis companies, but we witnessed some serious eye candy – Sprig Soda, Zasp and Yummi Karma (pictured below) exemplify beautifully packaged innovative products with crisp, clean design.
