The Cannabusiness Development – 2017 Summer Workshops is a project of Karen Byars founder of the Mendocino Cannabis Resource LLC. With over 25 years of experience in grassroots organizing for Cannabis legalization Karen & MCR bring together a line-up of presenters that will be inspirational and informative, all experts in their field. Currently cannabis companies that work directly with the cannabis plant cannot receive support from their cities/counties Small Business Development (SBD) centers because they receive federal funds. MCR, with the support of the workshops sponsor, Flow Kana, has organized SBD workshops to guarantee that cannabis cultivators, medicine makers and manufacturers have the business foundation they will need to survive the challenges of the rapidly developing cannabis industry.
The workshops are for anyone applying for a cannabis permit or their team members,
& those who are interested in working with licensed cannabis providers.

The CHUMP is stumped as to how to respond.
He or she is certainly uptight.
Meh, wont be much of a turnout, vast majority of dopers are criminals and have no intention of ever going legit and paying taxes.
You sound terribly unhappy with your life.
I would love to see the glaze come over the eyes of the average pot-growing “businessperson” that you would find in Northern California when you tell them that they need a business plan, a resale permit, a tax advisor, or an account with EDD!
These folks exist for the risk, the cash, and the pirate lifestyle. They have no desire to operate legally.
There may be some corporate guys on the north coast, but they will be moving to San Joaquin and growing by the hectare, not by the greenhouse!
Those who talk don’t know, those who know don’t talk.
And which are you?
He loves being him. It pisses off all the right people.
