CANNABIS STARTUPS

Cannabis attracts new investments following two new legal states

Time reports that cannabis is now attracting new investments from entrepreneurs ready to cash in on its popularity. However, it highlights that, as brick and mortar stores proliferate, some entrepreneurs say the future of the industry lies online. 

In that vein, a number of startups are looking to become the Amazon of cannabis, with a number of tech startups launching apps and mobile websites, and others looking to replicate the Uber-Eats model or Airbnb by helping people to rent their homes to cannabis users. 

Alex Kreit, assistant law professor at Northern Kentucky University and director of Center on Addiction Law and Policy, told Time: “There are certainly potential legal difficulties with these new technology and business models. But a lot of these businesses will have an incentive to try to make their technology compliant with the law.”

He told the publication: “Official Government figures estimate there are around 100,000
