Holly Bell | Director of Cannabis, Florida Department of Agriculture
Manage episode 314775575 series 2973978
"The cannabis industry is its own best friend and worst enemy."
How does a state start from scratch with a new cannabis or hemp program? Where does one even begin? There is enormous pressure to get it right and to create rules that not only align with the law and are implementable, but also make sense for the growers and founders who put these policies and rules into action. Florida has the potential to grow into one of the largest cannabis micro-economies in the U.S., and the Florida Department of Agriculture is laying the foundation. Holly Bell, Cannabis Director for the Florida Department of Agriculture is responsible for this huge undertaking and she joins Ross O'Brien and Maggie Kelly from Bonaventure Equity to provide insight into the rule-making process and shares thoughtful advice for entrepreneurs entering the cannabis and hemp spaces.
