It’s hard to find a better place to spend Halloween than Las Vegas. Just like every other day of the year, everyone wants to dress up in a wild outfit, let loose, and find a good party. With more than a full year of recreational cannabis behind us, Halloween is better than ever, although Nevada […]

The third quarter of this year was full big headlines for the cannabis industry. Epidiolex became the first cannabis-based medicine to gain FDA-approval in the United States, Coca-Cola and Budweiser are preparing to jump into the cannabis market, and cannabis companies are causing waves in the stock market. All of this excitement is enhanced by […]
Determined to reverse this trend, one of Oregon’s most prominent attorneys, Amy Margolis, has launched “The Initiative,” the world’s first female-centric cannabis business accelerator. Working to balance gender inequality, Margolis says, “The Initiative will help provide the tools, mentoring, training and access to funding that women need to ensure their success in the cannabis space.” […]
It’s been a good few months for cannabis legalization in the Pacific. Last month, news broke that the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, a US territory not far from Guam, had legalized cannabis for adult use. Homegrow is expected to be permitted later this year, and rules surrounding legal sales have to be completed […]
It’s often hard to envision massive, super fast changes in social attitudes. But they do happen. Who could have guessed in, say, 1999, same-sex marriage would just a few years later become legal in so many states, recognized by the federal government, and seen as no big deal by many conservatives?

One of the first East Coast states to legalize cannabis, you may expect Maine to have a robust and unique recreational market.

One of the top states in population growth—coming in at number eight out of fifty—it’s starting to feel like almost everyone knows someone who is moving to Colorado. And it’s easy to see why. Beyond legalization, which has certainly been a huge pull for many, Colorado offers some of the most beautiful scenery in the […]
Ahh, California, a state that sweeps most of the West Coast and encompasses several climates. Mountains, beaches, desert, rich forests, and bustling cities are all within reach. The Golden State has something for everyone—it is the third largest (800 miles in length) and, unsurprisingly, the most populated state in the nation. As such, it is […]
In recent years, we’ve seen medical breakthroughs in cannabis come from all over the country—even the hinterlands of pot policy like Pennsylvania, where Gov. Tom Wolf signed the Medical Marijuana Act in April 2016. “Pennsylvania’s premiere medical schools will be able to help shape the future of treatment for patients not just here, but across […]
