| It’s International Women’s Day! |
The cannabis space is filled with trailblazing women who are working to shape the industry, including the members of Cannabis Conference 2023 Advisory Board and editorial team.
On International Women’s Day, we’d like to celebrate the women behind Cannabis Conference 2023 … and get to know them a bit better.
So we asked them: “What’s one thing most people don’t know about you?”
Here’s what they had to say: |
