inspirational, collaborative, accountable and committed to quality.
The Industry
The global cannabis industry is expected to reach nearly $15 billion this year, representing a 36% increase over 2018, thanks to both legalization in Canada and state-by-state efforts across the border.
Cannabis is more than just a socially-acceptable vice, like alcohol. It has been rebranded as a wellness product, not only for cancer patients seeking relief from pain and nausea but for anyone facing a range of conditions from anxiety to acne.
There’s a sense that people in the industry are on the brink of a new frontier, more on par with the industrial revolution or the gold rush.
Companies that operate in the cannabis space describe their culture as not that different from a Silicon Valley startup, with casual dress codes and flexible work policies.“
“One year in the cannabis industry is sort of like dog years.”
