The first-ever Cannabis Industry Awards 2023 presentation ceremony and gala dinner has reached full capacity.
Scheduled for Melbourne's Showtime Events Centre next Thursday (June 8), the evening will be hosted by comedian and television personality Cam Knight, with trophies awarded across 20 categories to a capacity crowd of cannabis industry professionals.
Co-founder and chief growth officer Martin Lane said: "We're thrilled the awards have been so well-supported by the industry.
"From our amazing sponsors and judges to the companies and individuals who put so much effort into their submissions, it's been humbling to see the sector working together to recognise its collective achievements.
"And to sell out the venue more than a week ahead of the event is the icing on the cake. Win or lose, we're determined to make it a night to remember for everyone in the industry and a true celebration of the work they do."
The awards panel consists of 36 senior industry figures serving as independent judges. Sponsors include Tasmanian Botanics, Bod Science, Pharmalytics, Standard Botanic, Oz Medicann Group and CMI Safe Company, with backing from Medicinal Cannabis Industry Australia, the Australian Medicinal Cannabis Association and the Emerging Therapeutics Association of Australia.
