A few weeks ago, movers and shakers in the cannabis industry gathered in Las Vegas for one of the longest-standing award shows in the space, The Cannabis Business Awards.
With an impressive lineup and an outstanding list of nominees, the event was hosted at Hakkasan, one of America's top nightclubs according to Rolling Stone, Playboy Magazine and DJ Mag. Attendees included 1998 Heisman Trophy winner Ricky Williams and former NBA player Al Harrington.
"This is a green revolution, full of dedicated pioneers, trailblazers, and inventors who have pushed this industry forward," Chloe Villano, founder of Clover Leaf University and The Cannabis Business Awards, told Benzinga. "The CBA Globes honor the great work of the people in the industry and the efforts to pioneer the end of the drug war. This is the place where you find a crowd of the most elite."
