Live today! Election Results: Impact on the MJ Industry

Introducing a new addition to the MJBizCon Expo: Equity Row, powered by the 40 Tons Foundation, proudly features 16 justice-impacted brands on the show floor.

"Last year, we brought a life-sized prison cell to the conference to highlight the hypocrisy of an industry profiting from the same plant that has caused people to be locked away for decades," said Corvain Cooper, co-founder and Chief Brand Ambassador of 40 Tons.

"This year, we're grateful that MJBizCon has recognized our mission and is helping us pay it forward by supporting other justice-impacted brands," Corvain added.

Find these social impact brands at 40 Tons Equity Row Booth 7811 and connect with other industry leaders on cannabis prison reform, social equity and restorative justice.

"At 40 Tons, we believe in sharing the platform we've worked hard to build. Times are tough, and it's critical that we help provide support to those who have faced systemic challenges," said Loriel Alegrete, CEO and co-founder of 40 Tons.

From California to Illinois to New Jersey — Equity Row's featured brands bring business advice and advocacy stories from those impacted by the War on Drugs.

"If we can create opportunities for justice-impacted entrepreneurs, then we're doing our job," Loriel added.

And with legalization and policy reform a hot topic post-election, MJBizCon is bringing you the success stories and informative insights to help propel the industry forward.
