Cannabis & Marketing: Increasing brand visibility on a global level
Wed, April 15 at 14:00 (2pm CET)
Effective marketing in any large industry can be challenging, but it is especially so in the cannabis industry due to industry-specific regulations and limitations. Stigma-driven content restrictions on many social media platforms further add to the hurdles for marketing cannabis products and services. We’ll bring together top international cannabis marketing experts to share tips and advice on overcoming those hurdles and developing marketing strategies that increase international brand visibility and awareness.
