Texas Hemp Coalition, the premier advocacy group for the hemp industry in Texas, is hosting its third annual B2B industry event, The Texas Hemp Summit, this November 1-2, 2024 at the Texas A&M Agrilife Center in College Station, and you’re invited!

 

We had such a wonderful time gathering together last year with over numerous attendees, panels and panelists & speakers. Our organization is looking forward to an even more impactful summit this time around considering all the exciting movement happening in the industry over the last year.

 

As such our event is poised to bring together B2B industry leaders from across Texas and beyond to discuss farming, processing, cannabinoids, fiber, and retail topics concerning hemp operators through educational conversations and presentations.

 

The goal of the summit is to address trending issues that are directly impacting our state’s hemp operators, as well as be a learning opportunity for those looking to get into the industry and scale.

 

Anyone who is interested in getting more involved in the industry, launching a brand, scaling their business, or who may be seeking job opportunities is encouraged to attend.

 

During this event, the Texas Hemp Summit will pack keynote presentations, panel discussions, as well as networking opportunities for attendees to get plugged into the most pressing subjects relevant to their passions, and business interests.

 

Speakers will be announced soon, so check the website for more details.

Tickets are on sale now for $110 at the Early Bird rate and will increase in price, and the event is FREE to all students with valid student email and student ID.
