Welcome to the Show, an introduction.

WELL, It’sabout that time again -Afterour first Hemp &CBD Expo took placeinMarch 2019 we areback fora second edition this September 14th-15th.

If we learned anything from our first show it’sthatorganising is by no means an easy feat!However,the reward is worth the risk when you get the amount of greatfeedback we had after the weekend of March 2nd &3rd,and everyday after we have been striving to deliver an even better eventfor September.

With less time to organise our second show,and two issues of our magazine to deliver,aswell as setting up our fantastic newHemp& CBD Media channel, it has been all systems go here at the offices. The good thing forour visitors, readers, and watchers, is thatweenjoy the pressurewe’ve put on ourselves to

be better at the second time of asking because we know thereare so many in this industrywho are justascomittedtomaking strides forthe hemp plant in 2019 and beyond.

We liketothink of our Expo as a bringing together of an industry. Thereare bigplayers, and smaller family run operations, whole plant advocatesand those only just learning about CBD. As organisers we constantly find ourselves trying to balanceout our exhibitors and our program and catertoall of the niche interests in such avast, diverse sector.

One of the things we’ve tried to work on forSeptember was bolstering our guestspeakers list, providing morepanel discussions and in depth talks at oursecondary ‘Business Pro’ stage.This will be for visitors who really want to delve a little deeper intothe topics, as well as our veryopen, welcoming Main seminar stagethatisagreat place to rest your feet and learn more

about the people and businesses in this industrythatmakeitgreat.
