Networking: Building Bridges with Key Players

One of the highlights of my MJ Biz Con experience was connecting with some of the most influential names in the industry. I had the pleasure of crossing paths with CLAB, Thunder Walker, Nunne Jones, Zarilla Bacon, Exhale, and the Pretty High Club. Each interaction was a reminder of the vibrant and collaborative spirit that defines our community. Whether discussing new business ventures or simply catching up, these connections reinforced the importance of networking in our industry.

This year, I had the honor of hosting the media for the Golden Paddle Showdown, a pickleball game that added a unique and playful twist to the week’s activities. The energy at the event was electric, with players and attendees coming together to celebrate in a relaxed yet competitive atmosphere. It was a fantastic way to showcase the lighter side of our industry while providing valuable media coverage for the event.

Our presence was felt throughout the event, from our media partnerships to our active participation in discussions and networking opportunities. It’s moments like these that remind me why I started these brands: to bridge the gap between cannabis culture and business innovation. This year’s event reaffirmed our mission and set the stage for even greater achievements in the future.
