NOTE: THIS EVENT HAS SOLD OUT
The increasing legalization of the cannabis industry has already ignited a revolution across all facets of the budding industry, but roadblocks and growing pains remain. From cash-only transactions to strain selection and treatment management, down to how patients acquire safe medication, there is high demand for innovative solutions.
Who should attend? Anyone who is interested in cannabis and technology, preferably combined 😉. We welcome developers, designers and entrepreneurs of all levels and skill-sets to hack. All are welcome, as long as you're passionate and willing to have some fun innovating!
Join High NY & AngelHack at Meadow HQ in San Francisco for a hackathon around all things cannabis tech!
