Day 1 🕑 1:50 PM – 2:35 PM 📍 Main Stage

Ohio's cannabis market is entering a new phase — one defined by rapid growth, tighter margins, and evolving regulation. This session brings together CEOs and senior executives to share how they are leading organizations through expansion, operational pressure, and ongoing market shifts. Panelists discuss how strategic decisions are being made in real time, from capital allocation and staffing to product mix and long-term positioning. Attendees will take away: how executives are prioritizing growth while managing margin pressure; what leadership teams are adjusting in response to SB 56 and market changes; how decisions around staffing, expansion, and operations are made; and where executives see risk — and opportunity — in Ohio's next phase.
