About Florida Medical Cannabis Conference
The Florida Medical Cannabis Conference is designed to provide unprecedented education, new cannabis experiences and networking opportunities under one roof. The Florida Medical Cannabis Conference features inspiring presentations with both 1:1 as well as, group sessions for patients and physicians in an open Exhibit Hall with the best the industry has to offer from dispensaries to various cannabis products.
Now, with a growing body of research from across the world and much evidence on the positive benefits of “cannabis as medicine,” more physicians are showing greater interest in patient recommendations. We strategically select keynote speakers, innovators and expert panels to extend multiple layers of support to Florida’s growing patient registry (170k+). Our mission is to ensure each presenter does not overlap information and provides content that will help your business grow and your patients find success with medical cannabis. We ensure our audience that Swe will have a few speakers or guests that you may not normally see on the Florida Cannabis circuit.
