The total is projected to increase to $31.3 billion by 2022, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.7%. With this type of impressive growth, it's no doubt that many investors, including the financial institutions in the US, are interested in investing into the legal cannabis industry. 

The topics covered by Sandy and her business partner, Craig, include: 1) the legal hemp/CBD market landscape in North America; 2) the vertical chain opportunities;  and 3) the future  outlook for the legal cannabis industry.
