Monthly Networking Luncheon: Business and Cannabis

The Business of Cannabis
Canada’s cannabis industry is young, entrepreneurial and rapidly evolving. Since 2013, Canada has established a sophisticated commercial system for the production and distribution of medicinal cannabis. With the legalization of recreational cannabis on the horizon, this burgeoning market is still in its infancy – which brings both risks and rewards.
Join us for an in-depth discussion about trends, opportunities and challenges in this emerging industry, including:

• How big is the potential market?
• Who are the players?
• How will various levels of government regulate wholesale and retail distribution?
• What will the consumer market look like post-legalization?
• How can emerging cannabis entrepreneurs position themselves for growth?
