Hemp & CBD Media bring you the second edition of their highly successful trade show – ‘The Hemp and CBD Expo’ at the prestigious National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, UK, Hall 17 on the 14th-15th September 2019.
Following the overwhelming success of their inaugural show in March of this year, the Hemp & CBD Expo opens its doors a second time to 150 exhibitors, two seminar stages and the Hemp & CBD awards ceremony. The event welcomes Cannabis industry influencers and those looking to educate themselves on a booming industry which is experiencing significant growth.
The organizers have ambitiously increased the hall size by 30% welcoming more exhibitors, with some returning favorites and new brands eager to show off their latest releases to market. 8000+ visitors are expected to fill the space over the weekend, with the vast majority being categorized as business to business, (investors, buyers, retail chains, convenience).
Two seminar stages (the hugely popular main stage, and the new ‘Business Pro’ stage - for extended in depth panel discussion) will cater for 50 leading industry speakers/influencers to educate and inform. Notable speakers include that of the outspoken UK celebrity doctor and special guest, Dr. Christian Jessen.
When asked about CBD products Dr Christian said:
CBD seems to be popping up everywhere. As a ‘wellness’ product there are some quite frankly outrageous claims being made. I am aware that the various components of cannabis may have some benefits but more detailed research is needed.”
When asked about the invitation of Dr Christian to the Hemp and CBD Expo, Tommy Prendergast the event manager said:
Dr Christian has strong opinions on a range of issues, his views are respected and based on hard evidence. We are convinced that Dr Christian will bring a voice of reason to the proceedings”.
