Cannabis Industry Event Connects Enthusiasts and Experts

On Monday, hundreds of cannabis enthusiasts, growers, and retailers gathered at the Hotel Eldorado Resort in Kelowna for an industry event organized by StratCann, a cannabis news and events platform. The event aimed to engage attendees from diverse perspectives and foster discussions on industry issues. David Brown, StratCann’s owner, highlighted the challenges faced by retailers and manufacturers due to regulations, red tape, and taxes. Despite these hurdles, Brown noted that the majority of cannabis purchases now occur in the legal market. He attributed this growth to the transition of individuals from unregulated to regulated channels. In February 2024, the provincial government permitted the promotion of cannabis-friendly spaces and consumption on public terraces. Brown believes this marks a shift away from the initial hype surrounding legalization. Brown emphasized that industry companies are now focusing on foundational aspects of operating in the cannabis space. The event provided a platform for attendees to share their perspectives, learn from experts, and discuss the evolving challenges and opportunities in the cannabis industry.A few hundred people gathered at the Eldorado Resort on Monday for a cannabis industry event.
