STRATEGIC PLANNING

Only entrepreneurs who understand both traditional business discipline and the nuances of the cannabis industry will succeed as markets mature. You need an airtight business plan to get funded -- cannabis investors know there are risks and expect you to have a plan for mitigating them and turning a profit.

In a Meeting

Highroad helps you plan and find funding by answering the questions both you and cannabis investors ask.

 

  • What kind of cannabis business should I start?

  • What jurisdiction should I set up my cannabis business up in?

  • Where can I find cannabis investors?

  • Will this cannabis business be sustainable in two years?
