About BizCann Expo
BizCann Expo, a production of ZJ Events, is a business and networking event for everything related to cannabis. Our founders were once exhibitors who, after attending countless tradeshow events, saw an opportunity to build upon their experience and create an event that combined the best they had seen with their own notion of what was missing in these business gatherings, thereby separating themselves from ordinary conventions. Since its beginning, the expo has focused on gathering the industry's best under the same roof.
