Registration is now open for the only trade show and conference in New York focused on the business of cannabis, the 4th Annual Cannabis World Congress & Business Exposition (CWCBExpo) will take place June 14-16, 2017 at the Javits Convention Center in New York, NY.

Serving the East Coast, CWCBExpo NY will create a dynamic marketplace filled with the best education, products, and resources.  Aspiring cannabis entrepreneurs, healthcare professionals, investors, equity partners, ancillary businesses, and agricultural opportunists that can profit from this nascent industry, as well as those already in the business can register now for early bird rates at: http://www.cwcbexpo.com/registration-new-york-2017/.

“This June, no other show in the Northeast will offer the depth and breadth of information and products for these industries expected to top $20 billion in the next three years,” said Scott Giannotti, Managing Director of the CWCBExpo events. “Our platform will continue to provide valuable education about all aspects of the cannabis plant, as we’ve done for the last four years, but this year we’ve taken a more comprehensive approach to learning that will take our attendees from A-to-Z as well as added a strong emphasis on industrial hemp due to Governor Cuomo’s commitment to making hemp a $1 billion industry in our state. It’s a very exciting time for New York.”

Led by industry experts in cultivation, business-building, science, policy, medicine, law, and investment, the CWCBExpo NY conference program (June 15-16) made up of curated panel presentations, lectures, and interactive discussions, will cover the five main sectors of the cannabis industry: Cultivation, Processing, Sales, Ancillary Businesses, and Advocacy and Legislation. The CWCBExpo NY conference program will also offer headlining Keynote speakers and thought-leadership panels. Some of our thought-leadership panels will include: Real Estate in the Cannabis Industry, Women and Technology, Professional Athletes and Cannabis, and Teaching Cannabis in Mainstream Education.

The CWCBExpo signature workshops on June 14th will take deep dives into medical cannabis, investing into the cannabis industry, industrial hemp, and a sophisticated recreational use workshop:

-“Comprehensive Medical Cannabis and Cannabinoid Training,” led by Healthway Education Systems (CME accredited)

-“Following the Money in Cannabis: Where and How to Invest in the Cannabis Industry and Raise Capital for Your Cannabis Business,” presented by Viridian Capital Advisors

-“Make America Hemp Again” presented by Hoban Law Group / CPS Education

For the first time, CWCBExpo NY will offer a post-event workshop on Saturday, June 17th covering: “The Art of the Cannabis Sommelier: Interpening,” presented by Trichrome Institute.

CWCBExpo NY, taking place under one roof, in the financial and media capitol of the world, will also host an expanded exhibit floor (June 15-16) with suppliers in the industry showcasing cutting-edge products and services to those in the business, entrepreneurs looking to enter the market, medical professionals, dispensary owners, retailers, investors, and providers of professional services.  Featured exhibitors participating in the CWCBExpo NY include: Elixinol (Gold & Press Room Sponsor), Greenspoon Marder (Lanyard Sponsor), Airganics, Amercanex, CBD for Life, CannaKorp, HempMeds, Labscape, MJ Freeway, and TrueLeaf Pets, to name a few.  The CWCBExpo is also partnering with leading industry associations including Cannabis and Hemp Association, National Indian Cannabis Coalition, and Women Grow.
