This CEO Predicts $1B In Cannabis Deals Closing In Just 2 Days: But Where? And How!?

The world's most successful cannabis business event, the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference, is returning to Miami for its 16th edition. Taking place at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Hotel in Florida on April 11-12, this conference is the hub where deals get done, money is raised, mergers and acquisitions begin, and companies meet investors and key partners.

Chief Zinger Jason Raznick estimates that around $1 billion in deals will be closed during the two-day conference. This impressive figure can be attributed to the high-profile attendees, which include top US MSOs, representatives from major investors, funds, and family offices active in the cannabis industry.

Navigating such a high-stakes environment might seem daunting, but the Benzinga team is there to help, offering curated networking and introductions to potential investors and partners. At a previous conference in Miami, Spring Leaf Capital founder David Kram participated in "83 meetings, countless spontaneous conversations, happy hours, after hours, and delicious meals."

Reasons to attend the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference range from meeting more investors in two days than in the last two years, learning about innovation and profitability in a capital-crunched environment, and engaging with CEOs and decision-makers from leading companies in the industry.

Investors will have a unique opportunity to learn from and about the companies at the forefront of the cannabis space. The conference is meticulously planned and includes keynotes, panel discussions, fireside chats, networking spaces, company presentations, an exhibit floor, and investor and celebrity appearances.

The conference aims to be inclusive, offering scholarships in partnership with WomenGrow, Minorities for Medical Marijuana, and the Minority Cannabis Business Association. Social equity passes and a commitment to donate a percentage of all event ticket sales to the Last Prisoner Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to cannabis criminal justice reform, further emphasize this commitment.

Benzinga is the leading voice in cannabis finance, publishing hundreds of articles on the topic every month. With 15 highly successful editions in various cities, the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference returns to Miami, where deals will be made, and the future of the cannabis industry will be shaped.
