The Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference is back, returning to Chicago on October 8-9, 2024, at the Marriott Magnificent Mile, where the cannabis industry’s most influential leaders and innovators will converge. As cannabis legalization efforts accelerate across the U.S. and beyond, this year’s event promises to be a significant moment for businesses, investors and advocates alike.
Following a successful Spring event in Hollywood, Florida, which attracted more than 2,000 attendees and 200 investors, the Fall edition of the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference is expected to offer even more opportunities for networking, deal-making and industry-changing insights.
