FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Let’s Talk Hemp Media Leads the Way with Virtual and In-Person Events; Announces New Partnership with RAD Expo, Las Vegas, NV, Las Vegas Convention Center, October 6-7, 2020

National Media Platform Connects Hemp Community with Fall Trade Shows, Sets Sights on 2021, and Opens Doors to Retail and Dispensary Opportunities Nationwide.

Denver, CO (July 8, 2020) – Let’s Talk Hemp, a nationally renowned media platform, is excited to announce its latest endeavor to generate new opportunities for the hemp and CBD industries by co-producing the cannabis-themed RAD (Retail and Dispensary) Expo. Now in its fourth year, RAD Expo is a business-to-business cannabis event, taking place this fall at the Las Vegas Convention Center, October 6-7, 2020. Let’s Talk Hemp is partnering with RAD Expo for the first time and intends to bridge hemp, CBD, and cannabis together to market to retail and dispensaries.

A 100% B2B trade show, the expo will feature more than 300 retail-specific exhibitors and vendors in one setting. “Let’s Talk Hemp is proud to collaborate with RAD Expo. The in-person fall event sets the stage for the future of both industries and is a must-attend for hemp companies looking to expand their footprint in the cannabis market,” says Morris Beegle, Let’s Talk Hemp Media Co-founder and Producer of NoCo Hemp Expo and Southern Hemp Expo.

Safety First: RAD Social Distancing Measures
Let’s Talk Hemp, in conjunction with Marijuana Venture and Cannabis & Tech Today, will co-produce the in-person expo and they are working very closely with organizers and production and venue partners to enforce strict social distancing and safety measures for attendees, exhibitors, and vendors.

“We are taking extended measures to ensure our team, attendees, and community's safety and wellness during this time. We're fortunate to be working with some of the most experienced venue and event partners, such as the Las Vegas Convention CenterFreeman Event Management and our hotel partner, Sahara Cares,” said Greg James, founder of RAD Expo and Marijuana Venture.

The RAD Expo plans to implement the following COVID-19 precautions:

  • SOCIAL DISTANCING: Six-foot markers and spaces will be placed between exhibit booths, and time slots will be put in place at registration to control crowds.

  • PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Attendees will be provided with sponsored cloth masks and hand sanitizer for their protection and the protection of those around them.

  • SANITATION: All registration devices and microphones will be wiped down after every use. Hygiene reminders will be placed with signage and notifications on the RAD Expo App. There will be additional designated sanitation sites stocked with hand sanitizer and disposable disinfectant wipes.

Beyond RAD + Save the Dates
Beegle and the Let’s Talk Hemp Media team are looking forward to producing more events such as this fall’s RAD Expo, a Virtual conference and trade show in November, NoCo Hemp Expo’s NoCo7 event that will take place March 25-27, 2021 in Denver, CO, and the Southern Hemp Expo, slated for Aug. 20-21 in Nashville, TN. 

“We have already had a powerhouse schedule of virtual events this year, with successful turnouts at both our EARTH WEEK Virtual Conference and Trade Show and our most recent Experience Hemp SUMMER SOLSTICE event. We have our eyes set on charting a successful course to connect our community and industry with in-person events this fall and in 2021,” adds Beegle. "It will be exciting to see familiar and new faces, both in-person and online. We can unify and better serve the community with informative and appealing educational events.”

Mark your calendar for these upcoming educational events:

  • Third Virtual Event, November 10-12, 2020, hosted by We Are For Better Alternatives (WAFBA), in conjunction with NoCo Hemp Expo and Let's Talk Hemp Media. Details and registration will open soon.
