SPONSOR & EXHIBITOR FAQs
How is the show structured?
There are two components to this event. The foundation of the event is structured around a “reverse trade shows” concept set up for I502 Retailers to hold 1:1 meetings with Producers & Processors to facilitate buying and selling cannabis. As there are huge opportunities for ancillary businesses that work in conjunction with the cannabis industry to connect with both of these demographics, the secondary component is a “traditional trade show”. Ancillary businesses are invited to host booth spaces and invite other attendees to speak about their products or services.
Each Sponsor and Exhibitor Package does receive a set amount of 1:1 meetings with Retailers. As Producers and Processors do not have booths, but will be walking around during the breaks and meal periods, this is will be your opportunity to connect with them. The schedule for both days of the event are as follows:
