“Cannabis has been legal in Canada for four years now and there is still so much stigma associated with it,” said Kathryn Reilly, CEO of CannExpo. “CannExpo aims to debunk the stigma and myths around cannabis through education, exhibitions and networking, and an upscale and fun show for consumers, budtenders and retailers.”

The PACE Radio Show is excited and very pleased to announce that we have Kathryn Reilly, CEO of the CannExpo in Toronto as this week’s guest. As you can read in her quote, she’s no fan of cannabis stigmatization and is working to change that. Kathryn Reilly is an innovator in the trade & consumer show industry with an impressive resume of consumer show start-ups and over 25 years of experience.

Kathryn produced the first large-scale consumer bridal show in Canada, the National Bridal Show in 1982. The show quickly expanded its frequency to twice per year, at Exhibition Place and the International Centre, Toronto. This early success led to her expanding the model to her other interests. She started the Success with Gardening Show in 1994 at the International Centre, Toronto. BabyTime, a consumer show for expectant and new parents, launched in 1998 also at the International Centre. All three shows were huge hits and exist today with new owners. Kathryn founded Social Web Media in 2015, a boutique web design and social media agency.

Kathryn Reilly now uses all that experience to bring the cannabis community, the CannExpo in Toronto Ontario.
The CannExpo is a consumer and retail cannabis show taking place March 24-26th, 2023 at the Enercare Centre, will feature three full days of exhibits and events for cannabis consumers, licensed retailers, and budtenders.
