Smoke Cartel CEO to Speak on “The Intersection of Cannabis + Tech + Women” at the National Cannabis Festival in Washington D.C. 4/20 Weekend


SAVANNAH, GA, Feb. 21, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Smoke Cartel, Inc. (OTC: SMKC) is a high-tech, multi-vertical cannabis accessory company. Today the company announced CEO, Darby Cox,  and Smoke Cartel teammate, Samantha Kramer, will speak on “The Intersection of Cannabis + Tech + Women” at the 4th Annual National Cannabis Festival in Washington D.C. over 4/20 weekend.

As a “Sessions Selection Contest” winner, Smoke Cartel’s application was ranked by a panel of cannabis industry leaders before public voting took place across social media channels. Cox and Kramer will educate on the barriers women face in cannabis and tech industries, how these skill sets can be combined to turn challenges into opportunities, and the ways in which Smoke Cartel is holding the door open for other women.

“It’s important to us that our customers understand Smoke Cartel’s values, and diversity-driven technology is something we attribute to our ability to engage over 125,000 customers in over 50 countries,” says Darby Cox. “We’re excited to have a platform to motivate more women to harness the power of cannabis and tech as we communicate our company values to the large National Cannabis Festival network.”

In 2015, Fortune famously announced “women CEOs in the Fortune 1000 drive three times the returns as S&P 500 enterprises run predominantly by men,” though women received a mere $1.46 billion compared to men’s $58.2 billion in 2016. This will be a launching point for the NCF discussion which will propose solutions for using technology to address these disparities in the cannabis industry.
