Earlier this month, MJBiz hosted its 11th annual MJBizCon at no other than the Las Vegas Convention Center. This year’s event featured over 1,400 exhibitors and more than 140 different speakers over the course of three days.
MJBizCon Sessions
Each year, MJBizCon serves as a platform to shed light on current trends in the cannabis industry from several different angles — science and research, entrepreneurialism, and legislation.
During the 10th annual MJBizCon in 2021, there were panel discussions on current research limitations, the rise of delta-8 products, and the green wave of legislation that swept across the U.S. during the pandemic.

MJBizCon Exhibitors
Imagine walking through the door and encountering a sea of cannabis booths that stretches as far as the eye can see. From edibles and pet products to packaging displays, consulting firms, and commercial grow lights, MJBizCon is a marketing haven for all aspects of the cannabis industry.
The exhibition floor is so huge that some attendees spend the entire conference just hopping from booth to booth. Others may divide their time between the conference sessions and the exhibition area.
This year’s MJBizCon spanned across two floors, with booths organized by different sectors of the industry, including:
- Cultivation
- Processing
- Packaging & laboratory services
- Business services
- Retail/dispensary booths
