BizSkule presents: The Grass is Greener – Profiling the Canadian Cannabis Industry

November 21, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Canada has recently joined a select number of countries in legalizing cannabis, a product which has inspired debate, and a new market full of potential. The impact of this potential has far reaching implications for the future of Canadian society. What will legal cannabis mean for you, and how can it impact your life?

This discussion will expand to showcase the role of cannabis in the future of science and medicine, recreation, the economy, and the new legal frontier Canada has entered.

Our panelists come from a range of backgrounds and will be sharing how they have seen the revolutionary growth in cannabis develop, and where it can take us from here. Meet fellow U of T alumni and network amongst colleagues while enjoying cocktails and canapés.
