SPEAKERS
Eric Wendt
Eric has
been working in chemistry labs his entire professional career. He got his start
in the pharmaceutical industry working with many of the top Fortune 500 pharma
companies on product development, formulation work, and stability studies.
After three years living and working in the Midwest, the lure of all the
outdoor activities Portland had to offer prompted a move to the Pacific
Northwest. He took a position in the quality control laboratory of a growing
vitamin, mineral, and nutritional supplement company located in Vancouver
Washington. There he facilitated the growth of the laboratory and worked on analytical method development to reduce turnaround
time, expand the testing capabilities of the lab, and assist with new FDA
oversight and regulations of the nutritional supplement industry. Next he spent time with an instrumentation
company working as a technical consultant and outside sales for analytical
chemistry applications ranging from academic research, oil and gas industry, pharmaceuticals,
and environmental applications. In November of 2015, he joined Green Leaf Lab and has
worked to bring its operations in line with the standards required in a
regulated industry. Eric also had the opportunity to participate in the RAC
committee meetings and was a member of a subcommittee helping to craft the new
testing requirements for the industry. When he’s not working, Eric enjoys
spending time outdoors and is an avid rock climber, back country skier, and
mountain biker.

F.A.Q.
Who attends? You'll meet women (and men) at all different stages of their career in the cannabis industry. Many will be in the research phase, just learning more about opportunities, while still working day jobs. Some are looking for jobs with existing organizations. Others are starting up their own cannabis venture or ancillary business. Depending on the status of legalization in your state, you'll also meet cannabis business owners & investors who are well on their way. Watch the video to see for yourself.
Why should I attend? Personal connections are the key to professional success. Through the wide variety of events offered to members of Women Grow, trustworthy business relationships sprout from the face-to-face interactions of our members. Together we have more power. As the cannabis industry grows on a national and global scale, women have the opportunity to build a new American industry from inception and redefine the workplace to create environments in which we can flourish and define our own destiny, and cultivate the next generation of industry leaders.
How can I get the most out of networking events? We recommend bringing business cards and a pen to take notes. If you don't have business cards, check out Moo for 10% off your first order (and your first order supports Women Grow). Watch our video on networking tips from Women Grow founding members.
Where are there Women Grow events? Women Grow events are held in small towns and large cities, in prohibition and legalized states alike. No matter where your county is on the road to legalization, you can have a Women Grow chapter. Learn more about starting a Women Grow Chapter.
Are there ID requirements to attend? All attendees must be 21 years or older and have a valid ID as many events occur in establishments serving alcohol.
What are my transportation/parking options? We recommend taking public transportation. Street parking is not guaranteed, plan accordingly.
Can I pay at the door? Paying in advance helps speed up our check-in process and makes sure you receive all event announcements. If you are unable to pay in advance, please bring cash.
Are tickets refundable or transferrable? You may send a friend to attend in your place. Tickets are not refundable.
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event? No, as long as your ID matches the name your registered the ticket under. You may also show us your ticket on your mobile device. If you are giving your ticket to a colleague, please forward them the ticket to show us.
Are events on different days other than the first Thursday of the month? Women Grow networking events are on the first Thursday of each month (except for holiday weeks). Social events can be planned at other times. Women Grow's national events are held a few times a year. Make sure you're on the Women Grow mailing list to receive invitations.
Why do you charge for events? Women Grow is funded by event proceeds and sponsors. We charge for our events so that Women Grow is a self-sustaining organization. If you are unable to afford an event, please contact the organizer to ask about volunteer opportunities.
Why should I consider a career in the cannabis industry? Watch our videos on getting started in the cannabis industry and why women should get involved.
