Known for their commitment to collaboration, facilitating dialogue, and driving progress within the worldwide cannabis community, the International Cannabis Business Conference, or ICBC, recently hosted another historic event in Barcelona, Spain.
Taking place during the esteemed “Spannabis” Week festivities, ICBC, held on March 14th, featured a business to business trade show experience paired with panels and speakers from around the world.
Founded by veteran cannabis activists Alex Rogers and Debby Goldsberry, the International Cannabis Business Conference has emerged as a pivotal platform for industry leaders to exchange insights, explore emerging trends, and forge strategic partnerships.
At its core, the ICBC serves as a catalyst for innovation and growth within the cannabis industry.
Through a dynamic blend of keynote presentations, panel discussions, networking opportunities, and exhibitor showcases, the conference offers attendees a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in cannabis legalization, regulation, cultivation, distribution, and marketing.
One of the key highlights of the ICBC is its focus on bridging the gap between the cannabis industry and the broader business community. By attracting a diverse range of participants from various sectors, including healthcare, finance, technology, and agriculture, the conference fosters cross-industry collaboration and stimulates new avenues of investment and entrepreneurship.
The ICBC places a strong emphasis on advocacy and social responsibility, advocating for equitable access to cannabis, promoting sustainable cultivation practices, and addressing social justice issues related to drug policy reform. Through informative sessions and interactive workshops, the conference empowers attendees to become agents of positive change within their communities and beyond.
While the conference originated in the United States, the event has expanded its reach to include international destinations, with Europe emerging as a focal point for cannabis industry growth and innovation. Hosted in vibrant cities such as Berlin, Barcelona, Amsterdam, and soon, Slovenia, the European editions of the ICBC attract a diverse array of participants from across the continent and beyond.
These iconic locations not only provide a dynamic backdrop for the conference but also offer attendees the opportunity to immerse themselves in Europe’s rich cultural heritage and progressive attitudes towards cannabis legalization.
