Welcome back to "The Microdose Diet" newsletter, your trusted source for achieving success, passion, and happiness in life and career through alternative medicines like microdosing psychedelics. 🍄
There's nothing better for me than to write on an investment opportunity for a conference focusing on psychedelics! This is definitely quite different from a tech investment, but in the context of individual portfolio management, this is likely to be a very nice addition to many portfolios. Who doesn’t want to invest in an already profitable business?!
Have a look and please reach out to me if you want to explore this opportunity.
THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO is a great opportunity to invest in a profitable business model with large growth prospect led by senior leaders who have done it before!
🍄So what is THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO exactly?
The expo is surfing the big wave (or rather the tsunami) generated by the psychedelic gentrification. The market for psychedelic drugs alone is projected to reach a valuation of USD 11.82 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate of 13.49% over 2022-2029.
The expo also leverages the immense consumer appetite for the topic of Psychedelic Wellness, as well as the difficulty to access credible information.
THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO’s mission is to democratize psychedelic wellness by bridging the knowledge gap between practitioners and would-be patients. With 16 hours of programming, it will fulfill this lofty goal while filling in the current void, becoming in the process the premier consumer expo on psychedelic wellness.
With renowned speakers covering a range of topics, including legal access, sexual health, a live demo of a traditional ayahuasca ceremony and discussions around Microdosing (led by the exceptional Me ;-)), this groundbreaking event will help attendees navigate the complex world of psychedelic wellness.
The launch of the first OPEN:MINDS EXPO will be in Toronto in June 1st & 2nd. Quickly followed by Denver, Vancouver, Washington,… for a total of ~10-12 shows per year in North-America.
With ticket price ranging from $50 for a 1 day pass and $80 for a 2 day pass, access to the expo will be within the reach of most would be attendees… no Eras Tour pricing in sight here!
🚀Who is behind THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO?
Jon Kamin and Josh Kerbel, are the founders of The Open:Minds Expo and frshminds. They began working together in the cannabis sector at Lift & Co., wherein they ran the largest consumer cannabis shows in Canada (20K attendees, $3MM EBITDA) prior Covid hits us. So they are definitely not new to the party of scaling large events in the psychedelic space.
With a background in digital media spanning 20 years that included leadership roles at Torstar, AutoTrader, Extreme Ventures and Bain & Company and with a successful exit under their collective belts, Jon and Josh have extensive startup and scaleup background.
They are one once again back in the saddle to make THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO a global (and profitable!) event.
💸 Opportunity to invest in THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO
Each of the event is CF positive to a very attractive tune ;). In order to quickly scale THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO across North-America, Josh & Jon are currently seeking $500,000.
An investment in THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO will be of interest to individuals and organizations looking to have (legal) exposure to the blooming psychedelic space.
It will also be of interest to parties looking to diversify their capital allocation into businesses with a scalable and profitable profile.
Jon & Josh will be happy to share more financial details with interested parties. If interested, please email Jon@frshminds.com or reach out to me and I will connect you!
In an nutshell, THE OPEN:MINDS EXPO is a great opportunity to invest in a profitable business model with large growth prospect led by senior leaders who have done it before!
