Welcome to the Green Rush, a KCSA Strategic Communications Production, a weekly conversation at the intersection of cannabis, psychedelics, the capital markets and culture.
This week Kris Krane chatted with Ira Weinstein, Managing Principal of Cannabis Industries for CohnReznick, a leading advisory, assurance, and tax firm that helps clients seize emerging opportunities and change the game in their industries. CohnReznick’s cannabis practice helps cannabis companies adopt compliance, financial, and operating best practices to protect assets, strengthen balance sheets, and drive growth.
In this episode Kris sat down with Ira to learn about the process of launching a cannabis practice within a 100 year old, institutionalized consulting firm as well as the growing environmental, social, and governance movement in the cannabis industry. Ira explains the need for professionalism and legitimacy within the cannabis industry in order to maintain a well regulated market and explains how his firm is helping to build it. He also discusses the potential of state level rollout programs in 2023 within the tri-state area.
So sit back and enjoy our conversation with CohnReznick’s Managing Principal of Cannabis Industries, Ira Weinstein.
