The monopoly on medical knowledge previously held by governments, pharma companies and the medical establishment has now been broken forever due to technological advancements and the internet, according to Boaz Wachtel, an Israeli industry veteran who has launched two cannabis companies traded on the Australian Stock Exchange.
Wachtel will present “The Democratization of Knowledge: What it means for Medical Cannabis,” during “The Future of Medical Hemp” micro conference Aug. 24-25 at HempToday Center in Poland. Representatives from Germany, China, Greece, Poland, USA, Lithuania, Israel and the Czech Republic are already signed on to attend the Summit.
Only 2 accreditations remain for the networking & intelligence gathering which is limited to 25 participants. Registrants have the option of making a 15-minute presentation about their companies, startups or business plans. The application period is open through Aug. 15.

“The media tools available today can quickly fuel demand and further data sharing among patient groups in such a way that market estimates for CBD, especially because it is non-psychoactive and safe, are not far from future reality,” Wachtel said.
Poland-based blue-chip CBD brand CannabiGold is host sponsor for “The Future of Medical Hemp,” during which attendees will get in-depth analysis about a wide range of topics related to CBD, including investment, product development & innovation, global medical hemp hot spots, the regulatory environment, biochemistry of cannabinoids, and cannabinoid production.
Czech-based Hempoint, the vertically integrated hemp producer and consultancy, is partner for the event.
