About THE CULT

THE CULT Events LLC is an event planning company running the annual cannabis+tech+culture convention plus year-round corporate retreats, investor dinners, weddings, and Demo Days on the Grow Campus. Think SXSW meets cannabis meets rural America — combining business, education, and culture in the Black Hills.

The Opportunity

The global events market is $15B. Cannabis events are either trade shows (boring) or festivals (unserious). THE CULT fills the gap with a curated convergence that combines business, education, and culture in one of America's most iconic landscapes.

Funded through Seed Foundation allocation plus event revenue. $270K Y1 (V6 floor) from year-round event planning, convention launches Year 3 with $7.36M target by Year 5. V4 ceiling: $5M Y1 / $50M Y5.
