BioOhio Presents: Medical Cannabis & Hemp in the Buckeye State

BioOhio will be facilitating two events on September 16 in Columbus:  the Ohio Medical Cannabis Update – Pharma Grade and the Ohio Hemp Regulatory Forum – Wellness Market & Industrial.

This is not your typical event, as we are presenting two separate industries (medical cannabis and hemp) controlled by different regulatory bodies and we are hosting the top executives from the governor’s cabinet in-person.

This is the only cannabis and hemp forum to have these regulators speak to these two industries in person.

Medical Cannabis Background:  The Ohio Medical Marijuana, Cannabis market is now functioning statewide. This is a “controlled substance”, which is generally a drug or chemical whose manufacture, possession, or use is regulated by a government, in this case Ohio.

Hemp Background:  The US Congress passed the 2018 Farm Bill and made it legal for farmers to grow industrial hemp for the first time since the passage of the 1970 Controlled Substances Act (or, practically speaking, since the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act).  Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed Senate Bill 57 into Ohio law on July 30, 2019, which allows farmers to grow industrial hemp and stores to sell products with its ingredient, known as CBD.

Please join us and our guests from Governor DeWine’s Cabinet in-person, including chief regulators from the:

• Ohio Department of Commerce
• Ohio Board of Pharmacy
• Ohio Medical Board
• Ohio Department of Public Safety
• Ohio Department of Agriculture
• And Business Leaders in the State

Meet, network, and engage with medical cannabis industry professionals in the morning and hemp experts in the afternoon. Join researchers, clinical experts, investors, healthcare providers, cultivators, processors, dispensaries, patients, job seekers, entrepreneurs, new technology providers, advocacy groups, ancillary business owners, those new to the cannabis or hemp industry, and so many others on September 16 at this one-of-a-kind event.
