Akerman is a proud sponsor of the CLAB 8th Annual Conference & Expo, presented by CannabisLAB. This landmark event for the global cannabis industry will bring together industry leaders, business executives, celebrities, and politicians to discuss the expanding international cannabis markets, import/export opportunities, and the implications for businesses in the United States and abroad.

Akerman's Cannabis Practice Chair Jonathan Robbins will speak on the panel titled “Florida as a Gateway: The U.S. Launchpad for CALA Cannabis,” where he and his co-panelists will discuss how Florida is emerging as a strategic base for global cannabis companies, specifically in the Caribbean and Latin America (CALA).
