Our guest for episode #29 is Patrick Rea, co-founder and CEO of Canopy Boulder, a venture fund and accelerator focused on the cannabis industry. 

We get Patrick’s thoughts on a number of topics, including:

• the state of the legal cannabis industry today
• challenges and opportunities in the canna biz (hint: both involve data)
• legislative realities and prospects for expanded legalization
• the coming involvement of Big Business in cannabis
