Members meet to share progress in February
Members of the Cannabis Industry Council are coming together in London on Wednesday 24 February to discuss the progress being made by members.
Taking place both in person and via Zoom, the meeting will see Working Group Chairs and members discuss priorities, actions and outcomes from the last three months.
With Working Groups now covering seven key areas of the cannabis and hemp CBD sectors, supported by Lobbying and PR and Marketing activity, the Council is making good progress towards its first priorities.
