A Look Back at the 2nd Annual Kentucky Cannabis Conference
The 2nd Annual Kentucky Cannabis Conference has officially wrapped, and what an incredible event it was! Over two days, we brought together industry professionals, advocates, policymakers, and entrepreneurs to discuss the future of cannabis in Kentucky. The energy in the room was undeniable as attendees connected, learned, and strategized about how to move the industry forward in our state.
Key Highlights from the Conference
1. Engaging Discussions & Expert Panels
Our lineup of speakers covered a wide range of topics, from cannabis policy and legislative updates to business development and industry innovation. Panels featured Jason Ams & Kristen McCall from the Dentons firm, Ashley Mosby from DOPE CFO, and Barry Davis from NOBO/GroRay Technologies, and many others who shared invaluable insights on what’s next for Kentucky’s cannabis landscape.
2. A Strong Focus on Legislation & Advocacy
A major theme of this year’s conference was education at the state capitol. With cannabis reform gaining momentum, it’s more important than ever for lawmakers, industry leaders, and consumers to work together. The Legislative Roundtable provided an open space for dialogue on regulatory changes, challenges, and opportunities in Kentucky.
3. Business Growth & Networking Opportunities
The conference wasn’t just about education—it was also a hub for entrepreneurs and business operators to network and explore new opportunities. From emerging startups to established brands, attendees had the chance to build relationships that will help grow Kentucky’s cannabis industry.
4. Our Exclusive Pre-Conference Networking Event
The evening before the conference, we hosted a networking mixer at Castle and Key Distillery, where speakers, sponsors, and attendees got to connect in a more relaxed setting. It was the perfect way to kick off an impactful weekend!
