E12 - Early breakdown of the Cannabis Administration & Opportunity Act, Harborside & Sublime, and D2C in CA

High Rise: Cannabis MSOs, Products & Market Analysis

We are back for another High-Rise episode and this week we welcome a new special guest host Matt Hawkins, managing partner at Entourage Effect Capital. Matt brings some great perspective to the conversation as we delve into some of the latest developments on the Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act. It is still to early to pass this important legislation, but we break down two of its key aspects and why they’re so important to the industry. In SSO news we dig into the Harborside and Sublime deal that is currently in the works and how it could serve as a great example on how to navigate through California’s complicated state regulations in the right way. Finally we talk a bit about an MJBiz article that came out about California cannabis brands that are beginning to sell directly to consumers, (a.k.a. D2C) and how that might bypass the need for brick and mortar businesses. As always there is so much to talk about and this episode is no exception!
