Since years worldwide established as the largest international hemp trade show, the CannaBusiness this year will present two special days in the City Hall of the Forum Castrop-Rauxel with a large information offer. In the foyer initiatives, associations, exhibitors and self-help groups stand in front, while in the City Hall high-grade lectures are held by physicians, scientists and lawyers on the status quo of Cannabis in research and medical practice as well as over the current jurisdiction. Further topics are hemp in food, body care and clothing, Cannabis in the current practice of drug information centers, possible fields of application of Cannabis as a medicine and practical experience of physicians. The organizer of the CannaBusiness, the Tri Tec GmbH is supported by the International Association Cannabis as a Medicine (www.cannabis-med.org) and its chairman Dr. Franjo Grotenhermen M.D. who has fought for years for the acceptance of Cannabis as a medicine. The foyer of the City Hall presents book tables, demonstration of medical devices, information centres and display cases in which exhibitors will show their assortment (clothing, groceries, body care, textiles) parallel to their stand in the Europahalle. The monthly periodical HANF!, also cooperation partner of the Tri Tec GmbH, will publish a special edition at the CannaBusiness, which will summarize the contents of the special days on 100 pages. Beside articles of physicians on different use of the hemp plant also lawyers, biologist and hemp pioneers will get a hearing and last but not least a lot of addresses and contacts (lawyers, initiatives, physicians, information centers and much more) are provided. The removable central part of this issue will deal exclusively with the coming CannaBusiness. In the Europahalle again more than 100 exhibitors out of 14 nations will present products, services and their Know-How around hemp. A colorful market that offers new and interesting but also well known products of the entire world to each visitor. Many long-time exhibitors, but also new participants already announced to introduce new and exciting products at the CannaBusiness. Of special interest is the participation of the Canadian cosmetic company Canolio, that sells its assortment among others in the Canadian Homeshopping-TV canal - successfully and with enormously wide effect. The beer-garden between the Europahalle and the City Hall invites to linger with hempy food and drinks, more booths and the legendary Bushmobil from Austria (a bus with roof terrace) that change the Outdoor-gastronomy into a colorful market place where the visitors can relax in cheerful atmosphere.
