Self-investing is a time-intensive activity. For investors who take this activity seriously – and have the opportunity to travel – attending investor conferences is an excellent way to get one-on-exposure to the management of public companies. Along with this, additional information and education is available from the respected speakers who headline these conferences.
Unfortunately, not all investors have the luxury of attending such events. Some simply cannot spare the time from their busy schedules. Others have health issues or other constraints that prevent them from traveling to these shows.
At Stockhouse, we thought: if investors can’t go these conferences, why not bring select pieces of these conferences to them? From that, the Stockhouse Virtual Online Conference was born – the next best thing to attending in person.
Our next opportunity to bring one of these events to you is the Arcview Las Vegas Cannabis Conference 2018.
Stockhouse is thrilled to partner with the Arcview Group on this online event. Founded in 2010, The Arcview Group is responsible for a number of groundbreaking ventures in the cannabis industry. The Arcview Investor Network includes more than 600 accredited investors who have put more than $190 million behind 175 companies. Arcview Market Research has published the State of Legal Marijuana Markets since 2011 and it has become the most oft-cited data in the sector. In 2017, Arcview Market Research partnered with BDS Analytics to add more robust point-of-sale data and consumer insights to its offerings. In 2015 Arcview became a partner inCanopy, the first seed-stage mentor-driven business accelerator. Arcview is also co-founder of Cannasure Insurance Services, the leading provider of business insurance to the cannabis industry. Forbes Magazine recently named ArcView among the top 5 financial firms in the cannabis sector.
EVENT SUMMARY
Stockhouse Events is pleased to bring portions of ARCVIEW Las Vegas 2018 to investors unable to attend in person as part of our FREE virtual online conference series. We sifted through the exhibitors for this year’s event and selected the following for special focus.
MEET THE CEO'S and ASK Questions of them directly - LIVE!! - during their 30 minute presentations.
MJIC – private company (12:00 PM to 12:30 PM)
Sturges Karban:
MJIC is transforming the legal movement of cannabis across all of California, and beyond. Our company supports, connects, and protects every vertical of the cannabis supply chain, from cultivator to consumer, while never compromising on compliance. We mean that. Never.
To start, we are building California’s first cannabis superhighway — a fully-licensed logistics infrastructure stretching from San Diego to Oakland, from the Desert to the Pacific, and virtually every major metropolitan market in between. But for us, that road doesn’t end with The Last Mile and B2B wholesale distribution — it simply intersects with the point at which our suite of integrated B2C retail operations only just begins. Whether it’s through our branded brick-and-mortar storefronts, robust local on-demand delivery capabilities, or ground-breaking intrastate e-commerce platforms, we are committed to bringing best-in-class cannabis products to registered patients and recreational users alike through every sales channel that is lawfully at our disposal today. Thank you, B2B and B2C.
Aquilitas – private company (12:30 PM to 1:00 PM)
Myrna Gillis:
Leading the way in Nova Scotia and around the world, Aqualitas is an aquaponic cannabis company rooted in science. We grow using a proprietary cultivation process developed for us in association with Finleaf Technologies, Inc., Acadia and Dalhousie Universities. We use all-natural inputs and produce a product with robust terpene profiles, larger yields and faster growing times. We grow using the symbiotic relationship between fish and plants without reliance on pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. The fish provide all-natural nutrients to feed the plants and the plants clean the water and return it, maintaining a system that uses 90% less water and 50% less energy than traditional indoor growing methods.
MTECH/MJ Freeway – private companies (1:00 PM to 1:30 PM)
Tahira Rehmatullah:
MTech Acquisition Corp. is a blank check company formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. The Company's efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region, although the Company intends to focus its search on companies ancillary to the cannabis industry, with a particular sector focus that includes compliance, business intelligence, brand development and media.
Jessica Billingsley:
MJ Freeway offers a cloud-based, seed-to-sale, cannabis compliance software for marijuana businesses including retail, delivery, wholesale, cultivation, and manufacturing. Our platform is currently being used throughout the United States and globally.
MJ Platform is the only generation 2 cannabis software built specifically for growing, tracking, manufacturing, and selling medical and recreational cannabis. This is not ERP software retrofitted from another industry or a company’s beta attempt at cannabis software. This is the industry’s most popular software upgraded and enhanced with features and capabilities that far outstrip the competition.
The Supreme Cannabis Company -- TSX: V.FIRE (1:30 PM to 2:00 PM)
John Fowler:
Supreme believes the world is ready to end a century of cannabis prohibition - a global movement rooted in Canada. Supreme has been at the centre of the cannabis space since 2014 in pursuit of this massive opportunity.
Supreme trades as FIRE (TSX.V:FIRE) on the Toronto Venture Exchange. FIRE is a testament to our passion for cannabis, our obsession with quality, and our mission to light up the cannabis sector.
We established 7ACRES as the first licensed producer focused on growing high-quality cannabis in high quantities. Today 7ACRES is en route to becoming Canada’s leading cultivator of consistently great commercial cannabis.
As legalization grows beyond our borders, we will continue to identify new opportunities to build innovative cannabis businesses across the globe.
Tidal Royalty Corporation – CSE:RLTY.U (2:00 PM to 2:30 PM)

Our team has built, led and advised some of the most iconic cannabis businesses in Canada and across the world. We leverage this expertise to identify exceptional licensed operators and provide them the financing they need to grow their business.
