Cannabis and hemp regulatory strategy from the regulator who built the Massachusetts market.
Contact Shawn
One plant. Two legal markets. All of it regulated.
- Licensing
- Compliance
- Government relations
- Policy strategy
For cannabis and hemp operators, investors, trade associations, and the regulators themselves. The work ranges from a one-call read on a sub-regulation to writing the policy the next market runs on. We don’t just interpret the rules. We’ve written them.
That includes the alcohol aisle, where hemp THC beverages are already on the shelf and the three-tier system is learning to carry an intoxicant it was never designed for.
