A word from Jay Virdi–
Cannabis Practice CSO
As CSO for Cannabis, I will be focusing my efforts on
perpetuating expertise in the regions where there is proven
interest to grow in the emerging market that is
Cannabis. Education will be the main focus I’m spearheading in
our initiative to become the predominant broker for Cannabis.
Additionally, in the interim, I will be identifying existing
capabilities and expertise within HUB’s across North America to
continue to build the Specialty Practice Group so that it can be
utilized and assist when producers are engaging with clients.
