Why events?
We understand first-hand what it takes to put on a great event. While it’s what we do day in and day out, we know that resources and experience are key to success.
Events provide a great way to connect you and your business with your target market. A custom event can give you a personal touchpoint to build your brand, educate and build awareness with prospects, be seen as an industry expert and to network with like-minded people. Events can also give you an opportunity to better our community and can put you in touch with the demographic group you need.

“I was not sure what to expect for Mentoring Monday. It was BETTER than expected. It was a combination of seeing old friends, meeting new ones, connecting, mentoring and networking all in one! The women were engaging, helpful, insightful and I left having two strong connections I didn’t have before. One mentor even mentioned I mentored her! It was a WONDERFUL evening! Thank you!”
“This was one of the most informative events I have attended. There was a wonderful mix of industry stakeholders willing to share their experiences and knowledge. I look forward to the next NY Cannabis Insider event.”
“As a grassroots group that has been fighting to bring attention to the immense challenges in the cannabis world right now, we are immensely grateful for the space that NY Cannabis Insider created for leaders to productively vent and generate not just solutions but alliances and solidarity across the supply chain. Lucky for all of us, the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Our hope is that solid momentum for united advocacy was set in motion last week and that we can all have greater impact together.”
“The whole registration and “booth” set-up process was just so easy and quick. It was very enjoyable and easy to set everything up.”
“I think this is a wonderful idea. It not only helps the organizations that need assistance, but it also gives potential volunteers easy access to a list of places that need help and a list of what they specifically need.”
