Meetings Between Cultivators and Dispensaries/Infusers
Because there are a limited number of time slots available, the event hosts are scheduling meetings between cultivators and dispensaries/infusers. Therefore, it is necessary to complete registration information as soon as possible to ensure attendees are scheduled for as many meetings as possible.
Due to limited availability, meetings will be limited to 15 minutes, with a 5 minute “switching time”. We urge attendees to use this time to start a relationship and begin discussions, not to close a deal.
Meeting times will be provided by email 24 hours prior to the start of the meeting.

The Summit will include three 40-minute panel-driven seminars in both Chicago and Springfield to provide insight into operating cannabis businesses. Additional details about the panelists is forthcoming.
- 9:00 a.m. – Professional Services
- 10:00 a.m. – Construction/Architecture & Engineering
- 11:00 a.m. – Staffing and Operations
Light refreshments and snacks will be provided.
