Summary

1. How have cannabis dispensaries like MedMen been able to normalize cannabis in a retail space by changing the in-store experience and consumer perception?

2. What is the criteria and process of retail site market selection for retailers, distributors and manufacturers?

3. Local zoning ordinances and regulations and their effect where businesses can be located - are out of state businesses eligible for a license with operations in CA?

4. Has the stigma of being or leasing to a cannabis tenant changed as the political risk of investing in pot continues to subside? 

5. How are institutional investors capitalizing on the potential they see in creating new innovation hubs, office parks, and upscale retail around this emerging opportunity?
