The International Cannabis Business Conference returns to beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, this September 15-16, with our trademark blend of business, politics, and culture. If you want the latest information on rules and regulations in Canada and around the world and to network with top investors, entrepreneurs, and advocates, the International Cannabis Business Conference is THE industry event for you. But the International Cannabis Business Conference doesn’t just educate, we also ensure that you are engaged and entertained, and our networking events, including our after parties, have become legendary around the world. This year in Vancouver, the after party will be taken to another level as Cypress Hills’ DJ Muggs will be performing on a yacht!

A VIP reception on the 15th will kick off the networking at International Cannabis Business Conference in Vancouver, as speakers, sponsors, and attendees gather at the Westin Bayshore Hotel. On the 16th, attendees will hear from industry experts on a host of important topics including: local Vancouver and B.C. regulations; regulations regarding edibles, topicals, concentrates, and extracts; mergers and acquisitions; domestic investments; going public; succeeding as a craft cannabis company; exporting internationally; extraction science and technology; and how to best develop strategic partnerships.

Following the conference curriculum, the exclusive after party, sponsored by Bhang and Indiva, will take place on a Pacific Yachts 105-foot, three-level luxury vessel. The yacht will be docked at the Westin Bayshore Hotel for an amazing party experience that will also be extremely convenient.

DJ Muggs, along with all of Cypress Hill, has been a long-time supporter of cannabis legalization, making music for the community, way before it was easy and popular. The group even lit up on Saturday Night Live, earning a lifetime ban from NBC! Today, Muggs and Cypress Hill are members of the cannabis industry, with an understanding of the ups and downs facing the community.

International Cannabis Business Conference Zurich 2019 In Pictures!

The International Cannabis Business Conference made its first venture into Switzerland last week, with a conference in Zurich, and the event was a raging success. A sincere thanks to all of our speakers, attendees, sponsors and CannaTrade, Europe’s oldest hemp fair, for partnering with us. We are already looking forward to returning to Switzerland next year! After an amazing European trek that included Barcelona (in a team-up with the legendary Spannabis conference) and a bigger-than-ever Berlin conference, the International Cannabis Business Conference is looking forward to returning to North America as we next head to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in September to check up on the first G7 nation to legalize cannabis.

It was very exciting to see how Switzerland has advanced, becoming a leader in low-THC, high-CBD products of all types. The future of the cannabis industry in Switzerland is certainly bright as the innovative nation is clearly on the path to continue being a leader of the booming CBD market, with full legalization coming in the near future. From the point that the VIP reception started, the beautiful Atlantis hotel was buzzing with excitement.

Former United States Congressman Dana Rohrabacher set the tone of the conference, explaining his past, present, and future with the cannabis scene, from his days as a vagabond surfer to pioneering politician, to now taking his message of freedom global. Following Rohrbacher were panels and presentations that touched on important topics for Swiss industry participants and international actors alike, including the Trajectory of the Swiss Market, CBD in Switzerland, Cannabis Extracts, International Investing, and much more. The networking continued with another great Bhang-sponsored after party and into CannaTrade following the International Cannabis Business Conference.

As usual, one blog can’t do an International Cannabis Business Conference event justice, but here are some key highlights captured from our VIP reception, conference, and after party. Hope you enjoy these photos, and that we see you in Vancouver (September 15-16).
