Hart: “Networking in the industry is important to us. Our CEO and many members of the executive team are involved in numerous industry events and activities. We target events like the Marijuana Business Conference in Las Vegas, regional shows such as Lift & Co, and an enormous number of trade and consumer shows around the world. Going forward, cannabis and organic agriculture are the two primary drivers of any acquisition or joint venture talks we plan to be involved in. “What’s great about Greenstar is we really feel good about our place in the industry, in terms of the products we offer, the size of the organization, the scope of our international footprint and the way we are growing. It’s really enjoyable working for, what I consider by feel and definition, a small company and yet we’re pushing out products to over 20 countries around the world. It’s that combination of international focus, the ability to be an international business but still somehow a very local company, great culture, and excitement of rapid growth that make this place feel so special.”
