Power Connections Cannabis Recap: November 7, 2024

The Annual Power Connections Cannabis Conference once again demonstrated its impact in uniting the leading voices in the cannabis industry. Held at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, Michigan, this year’s conference brought together more than 550 attendees to connect, collaborate, and explore Michigan’s cannabis future.

This year’s event featured an exceptional lineup of speakers and sessions, including:

  • A keynote address by Alex Hails, who showcased how Dutchie 2.0 is transforming the cannabis industry by streamlining operations, enhancing customer experiences, and driving business growth.
  • A powerful presentation by Dan Fischer, President and CEO of Citizens State Bank, titled “Is Your Bank Causing You Brain Damage?” This session offered cannabis professionals strategies to navigate financial challenges.
  • Insights from industry leaders such as Mike DiLaura (House of Dank), Aric Klar (Quality Roots, Inc.), and Ankur Rungta (C3 Industries), who shared innovative ideas and expert perspectives.

This year’s event was also an opportunity to give back. Through the generosity of attendees and sponsors, $19,500 was raised for the Children’s Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to improving the health and wellness of Michigan’s children.
