Medicinal Cannabis Industry Australia (MCIA) is excited to announce the return of ACannabis in March 2021.

Peter Crock, Chair MCIA, says, “We believe it’s important to provide an opportunity to bring together all facets of the medicinal cannabis industry ecosystem – to connect, engage and build a framework to support patients’ well-being, enable best practice, and support industry growth. Now more than ever we need to stay connected and we are thrilled to do this via an innovative virtual platform. Going virtual also means we can provide greater access for industry members from around Australia and globally to attend. This year, with the theme, Unlocking The Potential of Medicinal Cannabis, our virtual conference will be aptly named ACannabis EVOLVE and we invite all industry colleagues to attend.”
