Why solutions for the Cannabis sector?

 

The cannabis sector is one of the fastest-growing industries worldwide, following the waves of liberalization in different regions. The legal cannabis industry is a multi-billion industry expected to realize a 27% CAGR during 2019-2023; that's unparalleled–even higher than pharma and IT, whose best sub-sectors foresee some 13% growth (Bloomberg, 2020). The industry is rapidly professionalizing: more countries and states are issuing cultivator licenses, and many pharmaceutical companies join the scene. The market presents many opportunities for medical, safe, and regulated cannabis-based products.
​And by the way, the cannabis industry was even more in demand through Covid (New York Times, 2021).
