As the cannabis industry evolves, ancillary businesses are increasingly pivotal in driving innovation and shaping the market. This session will explore how these companies, particularly in packaging, logistics, and vape technology, are not just supporting the cannabis ecosystem but actively defining its future.
Vape technology, in particular, has seen significant advancements, impacting market trends, public consumption habits, and consumer health. From distillate to live resin, the diverse range of cannabis materials requires cutting-edge technology to ensure quality, safety, and consistency. This talk will examine the critical role ancillary companies play in testing and refining these technologies, addressing both the health risks and potential benefits to consumers.
We’ll also discuss the economic implications of these innovations—how ancillary businesses like DIZPOT are helping cannabis companies maximize profitability through strategic partnerships and advanced solutions. The importance of choosing the right partners cannot be overstated, as collaboration with the right ancillary services is crucial to running an effective and compliant cannabis business.
Attendees will gain insights into how these often-overlooked sectors are not only enabling the cannabis supply chain but are also crucial in navigating the complexities of the industry.
