Cannabis Industry Disputes: Leveraging Arbitration and Mediation

This program discusses the impact of the current regulatory landscape on the cannabis industry and its prospects. Speakers focus on the legal concerns it raises, and the potential opportunities arbitration and mediation offer in fostering growth by offering all stakeholders, including those who are out of state and foreign, a safety net to counter the fragmented regulatory structure.  Speakers also discuss instances where arbitration and mediation may be the only option for cannabis businesses and investors and how such dispute resolutions mechanisms can be leveraged to help the cannabis industry in its growth aspirations.
