Panel Session: Hemp Cultivation & Commercialisation​​
Panelists: TBA
About Session: For India, cannabis has always meant more than a recreational drug. The country, especially the Northern states are aware of the cannabis' medicinal and other related properties but commercializing it has had stigma attached. Industrial cannabis or Hemp can be used as a substitute for cotton and can be clubbed with natural other natural fibers like silk to produce textile. The plant can also be used to manufacture paper products and fiberglass. Additionally, according to various researchers, cannabis can be an alternative source of biofuel.

About Session: Researchers are stepping into the void, lured by promising early data.

National Institutes of Health funding for CBD studies went from zero in 2014 to an estimated $16 million in 2018.

Panel Session: Economic & Legal Barriers to HEMP Manufacturing
Moderator: TBA
​Panelists:  TBA
    
About Session: Observers say commercialization of this potentially lucrative plant remains limited for legal, financial and technological reasons. They point to restrictive federal guidelines governing hemp, a dearth of investors willing to wager money on the plant, and a lack of commercial-scale processing equipment. Legalizing hemp may also be important for scientists who want to study CBD's effects.

How Can Industrial Hemp Revolutionise the Capital Market 
Speaker: TBA
About Session: Not only can hemp be used for an astonishing number of products, its net environmental benefit is impressive. Among the more salient features, hemp grows in a variety of climates and soil types, is naturally resistant to most pests, and grows very tightly spaced allowing it to outcompete most weeds. A natural substitute for cotton and wood fiber, hemp can also be pulped using fewer chemicals than wood because of its low lignin content. Hence it can truly revolutionise the markets of today.
