Spokes Digital, the cannabis industry’s leading AI-powered marketing agency, is proud to announce its participation in the upcoming Hemp Beverage Expo (HBE), taking place July 9–11 at the Omni Atlanta Hotel in Georgia. Representing the agency will be Lauren Laplante, Chief Growth Officer, who brings two decades of experience scaling consumer brands in regulated markets.

Organized in partnership with the Hemp Beverage Alliance, HBE is the nation’s only executive-level trade event exclusively focused on hemp-infused beverages. The event promises a curated gathering of the most influential operators, entrepreneurs, and visionaries shaping the future of functional and cannabinoid-infused drinks.

“The hemp beverage space is reaching a pivotal moment where innovation meets mass-market opportunity,” said Lauren Laplante. “Spokes Digital exists to help these brands cut through the noise, stay compliant, and scale smart in highly regulated environments.”

What Spokes Digital Brings to the Table
Spokes Digital is uniquely positioned to help hemp beverage brands accelerate their growth through strategic, compliance-aware digital marketing services, including:
AI-Powered SEO designed specifically for hemp and cannabis-adjacent brands
Paid Media Campaigns that navigate platform restrictions while driving real results

Creative & Content Services that connect brand identity to customer behavior

With a proven track record of scaling wellness and cannabis brands through search, social, and ecommerce channels, Spokes Digital has become a trusted partner for businesses seeking results in one of the most complex regulatory landscapes in marketing.

“Our goal isn’t to hand out business cards, it’s to hand brands a roadmap,” said Varun Patel, CEO of Spokes Digital. “We’ve seen too many good products get lost in the algorithm. It’s time that changed.”
