Nathan Donahoe of the Cannabis Consulting Group, a Silicon Beach-based think tank, will present an in-depth analysis of Los Angeles-area medical marijuana collectives and the role regulation plays in the city’s cannabis industry and entrepreneurship. Donahoe’s lecture is titled “Green Rush LA: Medical Cannabis Confusion in the Wild West of Weed.” He advises the City of Los Angeles on cannabis policy. He is also an advisor to the Cannabis, Health and Young Adult Study funded by the National Institutes of Health.
