DaySavers will award one applicant a $1,420 scholarship to use towards their developmental goals in cannabis. Additionally, four winners will be selected for tickets to MJBizCon, the largest cannabis business conference in the world, and four winners will receive two tickets to major events throughout the country including CannaCon, Champs and NECANN.

• Industry Access: Event access and editorial opportunities through partners like Marijuana Venture, Cannabis & Tech Today, NECANN, Benzinga, Fill-a Blunts, and Smoke Temple
