Cannabis LAB Hosts Annual CEO Dinner Celebrating CLAB Conference and Expo

Florida voters will vote on whether to legalize recreational marijuana use.

After hosting its 7th Annual Cannabis LAB (CLAB) Conference and Expo last month in Hollywood, CLAB held its Annual CEO VIP Dinner at Hyde Beach House to gather CEOs and influential figures in the cannabis industry for an intimate Moroccan-themed dinner. The 7th Annual CLAB Conference and Expo, presented by DAG Facilities, allowed the cannabis community to safely connect, engage, learn and grow.

The conference was a crucial venue for advocacy and education as Florida voters gear up to vote on Amendment 3 on Tuesday. By uniting cannabis industry leaders, corporate executives, celebrities, and politicians, the event provided a distinctive chance to present a strong, united front advocating for the benefits of cannabis legalization. Attendees could network, exchange ideas, and plan strategies to strengthen the “Yes on 3” campaign. The combined influence of these prominent figures can play a significant role in shaping public opinion and showcasing the wide-ranging, bipartisan support for this initiative.

Guests at the CEO VIP Dinner were welcomed with a Sour Apple Kamikaze cocktail and had the chance to encounter exotic animals like an alligator and a python snake. Matthew Hebb, the “Yes on 3” Campaign Manager, raised a toast to greet attendees and offered a brief rundown on the advantages of voting “yes” on Amendment 3 for the industry. The night was further enlivened by captivating performances from Moroccan belly dancers, adding a distinctive festive flair. Additionally, Jarobi, a founding member of the influential alternative Hip Hop group A Tribe Called Quest, delivered an engaging Hip Hop and Reggae set.
