Cannabiz Media won The Emjays - International Cannabis Award for Market Research/Data Firm of the Year! This prestigious honor was awarded during The Emjay's inaugural celebration. The black-tie gala, held during MJBizCon on November 30th at the iconic Palms Hotel in Las Vegas, acknowledged Cannabiz Media's outstanding contribution to market research and data solutions in the cannabis industry.

What are The Emjays - International Cannabis Awards?

The cannabis industry has yearned for a means of acknowledging outstanding businesses and individuals who stand out as leaders and innovators within their respective business categories. While numerous awards and accolades celebrate the finest cannabis products, there has been a noticeable void in recognizing companies specializing in ancillary services and products that play a pivotal role in supporting the cannabis market. This void prompted the creation of The Emjays - International Cannabis Awards, a collaborative effort between renowned event producers, Farechild Events, and the industry's largest cannabis trade show and media entity, MJBizCon. This prestigious initiative aims to fill the gap by honoring excellence in ancillary services and products, providing a platform for well-deserved recognition within the cannabis community.
