By Franca Quarneti via El Planteo.
The cannabis industry is expanding every day and, as a result, the marketing and advertising around it are becoming more and more competitive.

That's why, since 2019 the Clio Awards (one of the most famous international advertising awards) have a category specially dedicated to the marijuana industry.

On its official site, Clio Cannabis Awards states that its goal is to set the standard for creative work in a fast-growing industry, build a greater understanding of a developing category and elevate the creative contributions of top talent and agencies.

Without further ado, we invite you to take a look at the ad campaigns that are at the forefront of cannabis marketing.
