Cannabis is one of today's fastest-growing industries, where women can - and ARE - taking the lead in entrepreneurial opportunities, women-owned businesses, technology, and innovation. Recent studies show women hold 36% of executive roles in the marijuana industry; in Nevada, that figure is closer to 50%, and growing. But not everyone understands the legitimacy of the business, science, existing products, and services aspects, as well as the relevance of emerging technologies such as big data, cryptocurrency, AI, medical research, and more.
