All hemp entrepreneurs and enthusiasts should have a place to connect, share ideas, and grow
Does this scenario sound familiar?
Searching for answers on the web is time-consuming and has you running in circles.

Webinars can be unengaging, and don't always address your specific issues.

What makes Hemp OpenSpace so SPECIAL?
SERENDIPITY + INTERACTIVITY
Steve Jobs once said, "Creativity comes from spontaneous meetings, from random discussions. You run into someone, you ask what they're doing, you say 'Wow,' and soon you're cooking up all sorts of ideas." He attributed that creativity to serendipity.
At Hemp OpenSpace, your event facilitation experts create chance encounters throughout the event that foster serendipity. This ensures that everyone leaves with new connections, new ideas, and renewed energy for action.
