Women in Weed Need Roots: Networking
It’s been a long year and we have the largest national gathering of cannabis professionals coming up with MJ Bizcon in Las Vegas. As we prepare to finish the year strong in Vegas, here are reasons to start your time in the Sin City by attending Blunt Brunch Nationals.
As a woman working in a male-dominated field, it’s important to have strong connections to female colleagues. I have attended many tradeshows and for this one it’s important to front-load community belonging; attending Blunt Brunch prior to the start of BizCon is like convening with fervent supporters before a big interview or meeting. You’ll leave with new connections and invigorated for the days ahead.
Networking with other women can have many benefits, including:
