To support the surge of interest and investment in the Medicinal Cannabis over the past few years, it is important to connect as professionals to better facilitate the development of the Australian Medicinal Cannabis Industry as a whole. This conference aims to to bring together both local and international experts to present, engage, debate and discuss the current and upcoming technologies, ideas and challenges for the cultivation and manufacture of Medicinal Cannabis.
One of the top priorities for local businesses is to ensure that Australia’s budding medical cannabis industry gains a competitive foothold in the global marketplace, and utilising new and exciting technological concepts, such as Industry 4.0, Big Data analytics, automation, and digital inventory systems can become absolute game changers.
