is only natural to host an innovator event that could further unlock the
cannabis discussion. I can think of no one better to do so with than
Bruce Linton and Canopy Growth Corporation.”

trailblazing efforts and daily strategy. Those who attend the Cannabis
Innovator Breakfast will get the rare opportunity to hear directly from
Bruce on his outlook for global cannabis, what’s next, regulation,
celebrity partnerships and more.
“Cannabis markets are emerging around the world, presenting a rare
opportunity for investors and entrepreneurs alike. Along with Sam, I’m
looking forward to sharing the insights I’ve gained by building the
world’s leading cannabis business,” said Bruce Linton.
