The Economics of the New Hemp Market

The Economics of the New Hemp Market is a panel that was held on May 7 at the Green Market Summit in Chicago. The legalization of hemp is so new that the regulations are still being written. Data will be key to unlocking this industry and industrial grade price assessments will be needed over the next few months to support futures trading on a major commodity exchange sometime early 2019. This panel was led by moderator Peter Vogel, CEO Leafwire and he was joined by Jonathan Rubin, Founder – Cannabis Benchmarks, Kevin Pilarski Chief Commercial Officer – Revolution and Bethany Gomez, Director of Research – Brightfield Group.
