Why is Elevated Minds Social Hour the top networking event at MJBiz?+

It's purpose-built for real business conversations — not a loud party. The event brings together 300+ vetted cannabis executives, founders, investors, and operators in an intimate consumption-friendly lounge instead of a packed nightclub. You get curated attendees, no booming house music, a private setting at one of the most iconic cannabis venues in the world, and the timing (the first expo night of MJBizCon) means everyone is fresh, focused, and ready to do deals.

What makes this the best networking happy hour at MJBizCon?+

Three things: (1) The attendee list is curated — Cannabis Creative Group vets RSVPs so the room is full of decision-makers, not badge-scanners. (2) The venue is exclusive — Dazed! at Planet 13 is a fully licensed consumption lounge, so you can actually use the products you came to MJBizCon to talk about. (3) The format is built for conversation — quiet enough to talk shop, energetic enough to feel like a real industry kickoff.

How is this different from other MJBizCon parties and side events?+

Most MJBizCon side events are crowded open-bar parties where it's hard to find the people you actually want to meet. Elevated Minds Social Hour caps attendance, vets the guest list, and runs 4–8 PM so you can network meaningfully and still make your dinner reservations. It's the executive alternative to the late-night chaos.

What networking events are happening at MJBizCon 2026?+

The Elevated Minds Social Hour is a kickoff networking event at MJBizCon 2026, held the first evening of the conference (Wednesday, December 2, 2026) at Planet 13's Dazed! Consumption Lounge in Las Vegas. It brings together 300+ vetted cannabis industry executives for an exclusive happy hour.
