Multi-state operators (MSOs) are the darlings of the cannabis industry, but not all MSOs have performed the same. Some have beat all expectations, while others lost their way and are scrambling to survive. In this webinar, cannabis entrepreneur and Cresco co-founder Joe Caltabiano will take a deeper look at what separates the winners from the losers and how that knowledge may help investors and MSOs as they scale up. Big opportunities are on the horizon with eventual federal legalization and new investors coming on board, but success boils down to the work MSOs are doing now to build the right business models that can scale, adapt and thrive even when things don’t go according to plan.

This webinar will be presented in video format and will feature broader engagement opportunities for attendees to interact with the Mr. Caltabiano and Mr. Klein.
