On Wednesday, October 24, Public Strategies Impact’s Bill Maer, senior partner, will discuss the New Jersey cannabis application process at NJ Cannabis Media’s inaugural New Jersey Cannabis Summit. The event, held at the Forsgate Country Club in Monroe Township, is an all-day conference focusing on how businesses can capitalize on the cannabis market and the complexities related to emerging legislation and regulation.
Maer will speak on a panel from 11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. called “The Application Process.” Moderated by George L. Garcia, partner at Connell Foley, Maer and fellow panel members will discuss how to prepare for the next round of medical cannabis licenses, how adult-use licenses will be different, real estate and site control, and tips for navigating the New Jersey cannabis application process. He will be joined by Bert Steinman, Ewing Township mayor; Tara Sargente, CEO and founder of Blazin’ Bakery; and Charles Latini, principal at Latini & Geleitz Planning.
Other summit topics include “Establishing a Legal and Compliant Cannabis Business,” “Access to Capital: Funding Options for your Cannabis Business,” and “Opportunities and Obstacles in Running a Dispensary, Manufacturing, and Growing.” In total, there will be more than 15 speakers, each with a different background and connection to the cannabis industry.
Tickets to the event are $95 and include access to all speakers and panels, a continental breakfast, networking opportunities, and lunch. You can register for the event and view the list of speakers here. If you’d like to learn more about PSI’s cannabis expert Bill Maer, you can read his bio here.
