The Enterprise of Hashish: New York Summit returns to Williamsburg on Wednesday, November 6, bringing collectively 300 of probably the most influential figures shaping the way forward for hashish in New York, and throughout the USA.
Now in its fifth yr, this unique invite-only gathering will happen on the iconic Wythe Resort, curating probably the most impactful room within the New York hashish business. With 75% of entry strictly by invitation, the Summit is designed for senior executives, buyers, regulators, and policymakers who’re actively defining the trajectory of the business.
This yr’s Summit debuts a brand new premium format, designed for significant connections and actual deal-making. Gone are the bloated agendas and infinite panels — changed by curated 1-on-1 Government Exchanges, confidential roundtables, and strategic, curated networking periods designed to speed up partnerships, funding, and coverage alignment.
Why Now?
New York is at a essential second. With over $1 billion in authorized hashish gross sales in 2024, the state is quick changing into a worldwide point of interest — providing a uncommon mixture of regulatory evolution, cultural capital, and capital funding alternatives. But, main challenges persist: the illicit market, inconsistent regulation, and licensing bottlenecks.
The Summit agenda will deal with these head-on, with centered discussions on:
- Regulatory uncertainty and public notion
- Market saturation and retail evolution
- Development of the medical market
- Funding traits and funding technique
A New Normal for Business Summits
This yr’s expertise is constructed round impact-first design:
- Government Exchanges: No huge panels, simply candid, on-stage dialogues between regulators, CEOs, and buyers to actually get below the pores and skin of points & alternatives.
- Strategic Matchmaking and Roundtables: Tables curated by way of confidential attendee insights.
- Native Focus, World Visibility: Sponsors acquire entry to a particular New York showcase within the newly-launched Prohibition Companions Hashish Insights Hub.
