Get ready for a star-studded event in the world of cannabis. The Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference, scheduled for October 8-9, 2024 at Chicago’s Marriott Magnificent Mile, will feature a keynote address by none other than Hollywood legend Jim Belushi. While Belushi is renowned for his acting career, he has become a prominent figure in the cannabis industry as the founder of Belushi’s Farm.
Belushi’s journey to cannabis cultivation is rooted in personal tragedy and transformation. After the tragic overdose death of his brother John Belushi, Jim became a passionate advocate for cannabis as a safe alternative to harmful opioids. He founded Belushi’s Farm along Oregon’s Rogue River, where he cultivates premium cannabis products under brands like The Blues Brothers, Captain Jack’s Gulzar Afghanica, and Good Ugly Weed. His farm has become a beacon for those seeking high-quality cannabis and its potential healing and wellness benefits.
The Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference provides a unique platform for Belushi to share his insights on cannabis cultivation. Moderated by industry expert Zoe Wilder, Belushi’s keynote will delve into the intricacies of operating a legal farm, highlighting the challenges and successes he’s encountered. His popular Discovery series “Growing Belushi” showcases his hands-on approach to cannabis farming and will serve as a backdrop for his discussion.
Attendees will gain valuable insights into Belushi’s journey, learning how he merged his Hollywood career with his passion for horticulture. The event promises to be an unmissable gathering for anyone involved in the cannabis industry, with over 2,000 participants, including more than 200 investors.
Beyond Belushi’s keynote, the conference offers a wealth of opportunities for networking, learning, and exploring emerging trends in cannabis cultivation, investment strategies, and marketing innovations. The Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference is a hub for industry leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs to connect and shape the future of the cannabis landscape.
