In 2016, Massachusetts legalized the possession and cultivation of marijuana for recreational use, joining other states whose citizens voted to create regulated marketplaces for the drug. Despite ongoing federal Schedule I status, the industry is expanding rapidly, with sales surpassing $1 billion in states like Colorado last year, and some analysts forecasting a $20 billion cannabis biotech market in the US by 2020. This panel will explore growth potential and dynamics in Massachusetts. Our experts will address the state-specific regulatory, financial, and operational considerations facing entrepreneurs who see opportunity in a dynamic cluster of services that includes data analytics, supply chain logistics, management services, and e-commerce.
