ABOUT CANEX

A decade of convening people, ideas and opportunity.

Who We Are

CanEx is a Caribbean conference and expo platform where Connections, Culture & Commerce converge. Since 2016, CanEx has convened leaders, entrepreneurs, policymakers, practitioners, investors and innovators from across the Caribbean and the world.

CanEx 2026 marks the next chapter: a wellness-led platform spanning health, lifestyle, tourism, hospitality, nutrition, movement, plant medicine, culture, investment and commerce. Cannabis remains an important part of the CanEx story and one defined vertical within a much broader Caribbean wellness economy.

On Thursday, December 10, 2026 at Summit Kingston, CanEx brings business and consumers into the same ecosystem—creating a place to discover ideas and products, build relationships, explore opportunities and participate in the region’s evolving wellness economy.

9,000+ attendees · 800+ speakers · 52+ countries represented

The Next Chapter

CanEx 2026 is designed to connect the region’s growing wellness economy—from established institutions and emerging businesses to practitioners, creators and consumers. The goal is simple: put the right people, ideas and opportunities in the same room.
