WELCOME TO THE<br />
NATIONAL CANNABIS CONFERENCE!<br />
LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER<br />
I am proud to be hosting the first annual National Cannabis<br />
Conference here in Victoria, BC. I’d like to thank all of our sponsors for<br />
their support, without them an event like this would not be possible.<br />
Also, thank you to my incredible team and all of the volunteers who<br />
have worked tirelessly to help make this event a success.<br />
With the legalization of recreational cannabis slated for later this<br />
summer this new cannabis industry should prove to be a significant<br />
economic driver for all areas of Canada.<br />
The National Cannabis Conference was founded on the motto of<br />
“Inclusion For All”. We wanted to provide a place for individuals in the<br />
industry and those with an interest in cannabis to come learn and<br />
share their experience.<br />
We have a full day of engaging speakers set to share their<br />
knowledge and experience with you. So whether you’re new to the<br />
cannabis industry or a seasoned connoisseur, the National Cannabis<br />
Conference will be sure to have something for everyone.<br />
Enjoy and we look forward to seeing you again next year for our<br />
2019 event!<br />

PRESENTED BY<br />
THE NATIONAL CANNABIS CONFERENCE<br />
Cannabis regulations in Canada are slated to become legal later this summer<br />
creating two new categories referred to as Micro (“Craft”) Cultivators and<br />
Processors. These new Micro categories lower the barrier to entry to become<br />
licensed, providing the opportunity for current growers to participate in the new<br />
legal framework.<br />
Craft cannabis growers have been providing cannabis in Canada for decades<br />
and without this new category they risked being shut out of the new legal<br />
marketplace.<br />
The Micro Grower of the Year Awards was created to help craft growers to<br />
continue to be recognized as leaders in this industry and build brand recognition.<br />
The awards ceremony will take place at the 2019 National Cannabis<br />
Conference in Victoria, British Columbia on April 19, 2019.<br />
Remember... micro breweries make some of the best beers, local wineries<br />
create some of the finest wines, craft distilleries perfect some of the most<br />
exceptional whiskeys, and Craft Cannabis Growers produce the best bud!<br />
Be sure to follow and subscribe to the Micro Grower of the Year Awards on the<br />
National Cannabis Conference website to stay up to date. Submissions and<br />
voting will open in the coming weeks.<br />
