Advances in the status of hemp and its derivatives open up a broad range of business possibilities for non-psychoactive ingredients, particularly CBD, with its multiple mechanisms of action to support human and animal health.
“Changes on a global basis—and particularly in the United States—around the agricultural production of hemp are opening up great opportunities for producers of unique bioactives and finished products. This in-depth summit will be one of the first in this industry to explore the agricultural and regulatory considerations; the biochemistry, science and medical applications for cannabinoids, particularly CBD; and the potential ahead in this burgeoning market,” said Heather Granato, Vice President, Content, Health & Nutrition Network for Virgo.
