Welcome to Episode 61 of the Coffee & Cannabis podcast, live from NECANN Boston! In this episode, we're thrilled to sit down with Marc Shepard, co-founder and president of NECANN, the largest cannabis and hemp convention series in the world. Marc has been instrumental in growing NECANN into a must-attend event for cannabis professionals, advocates, and consumers since 2014. From its humble beginnings, NECANN now boasts multiple conferences across the U.S., including its major events in Boston, Atlantic City, and beyond.

We dive deep into Marc’s vision for NECANN, how the conference has evolved to become the hub for East Coast cannabis culture, and the impact of local markets on shaping the industry. Marc also shares exciting plans for the upcoming conventions, including new programming tracks, networking opportunities, and the latest innovations in the cannabis space.

Tune in to hear how NECANN continues to foster community and provide valuable opportunities for businesses, cultivators, and investors to thrive in the ever-expanding cannabis market.
