Florida Cannabis Coalition is not a school. You don’t get a certificate to hang on your living room wall from us. We don’t even have ALL the answers. What we are is without a doubt the BEST START you can get in the medical cannabis business coming to Florida. You will learn new things, make valuable connections and gain the kind of business insights usually restricted to the most successful corporate boardrooms – simply by being a member of our group.
There is no book that can teach you how to run a successful business, although many claim to do just that. No one can teach you how to run a cannabis business, or any kind of business in one day. What we can do is set you on your path and give you the tools you need to make the best decisions for you and your goals.
Florida’s population is roughly FOUR TIMES that of Colorado. We are now the 3rd most populous state in America after CA & TX. More people live here than live in the Netherlands. We rank 4th in state GDP and spend over $34 Billion on healthcare each year. When medical marijuana legalization passes in November 2014 there will be a land grab for share of the projected $785 Million annual market, the second largest in the nation. And with the current national climate surrounding full cannabis legalization for adult use, the potential seen by many for cannabis in Florida is limitless. We are on the cusp of a major economic shift. For those in on the ground level it will be nothing short of epic. For everyone else it’s just going to be awesome.
And this event is going to be AWESOME with an amazing keynote address by a living legend in medical marijuana reform and entrepreneurship, Steve DeAngleo.
