As always, I had a great time chatting with Brad.
In our ambitiously-informal hour, we spoke about Benzinga: our take on what the Governor of Illinois said, our experience at Benzinga (including somebody approaching me to offer cocaine), and more!

GM from the garden. 😮💨 time to engage the Burn’em Plan. See you soon @spirrison
Tried to time it to 4:20 but I’m rusty. 😮💨
Could Chicago become the ground that gives birth to a new category, or will we let one of our generations most obvious opportunities in pass us by when we are clearly in the lead. @1871Chicago @tweetgrownin @spirrison @WorldBizChicago

Great to be at the #CannabisInnovationSummit today @1871Chicago organized by @tweetgrownin !
#420day – at Winnetka, IL
I was excited to stop by @RecklessRecords in #TheNew34 as one of my very first jobs in high school was working at Tower Records, which used to be just down the block. Which of these iconic albums is your favorite?

“There’s a lot of parallels with other industries. Learn from what’s been done already. It also comes down to knowing your business score card (metrics) and the language of cannabis.” - Tamer Mohamed, VP of Manufacturing @crescolabs #CannabisInnovationLab @1871Chicago

"Solutions need to talk. Make sure any tool you’re plugging in is going to work with the others and that you have the expertise on your team to utilize the tech." - Craig Schneider of @TECVINE explains on a #CannabisInnovationLab panel this morning. @1871Chicago

"The biggest thing is transparency. As an operator, be clear with tech companies on what your needs are. I initially immerse myself in all the roles involved to get a deep understanding of what’s involved and required." Divina Capellupo, @NuEraCannabis #CannabisInnovationLab

The Illinois #cannabis industry continues to provide tens of thousands of good paying jobs while undoing the harm of the failed war on drugs. There’s always more work to do, but we’re making progress! forbes.com/sites/benjaminada…
