How to Be Successful: Cannabis Legalization – Lessons Learned from Other States
For 25 years, the cannabis industry has been taking a piecemeal approach toward state-level legalization, with each states’ policies having their own successes and failures. With over half the states having some level of legalized cannabis, leaders now have the opportunity to implement lessons learned from previous mistakes and provide a clearer path to federal legalization focused on cleaner regulations, social justice, and community development. Hear from a panel of cannabis industry experts who will share the lessons they have learned and how their experiences can help others find success in their states. The 30-minute presentation will be followed by a 15-minute Q&A.
