We are grateful and excited for our recent partnership with Vertosa, who has helped to curate our latest event within the intersection of culinary and cannabis with a focus on investing in minority cannabis founders. We will be co-hosting along with Austin Stevenson, Chief Innovation Officer of Vertosa. Discussions will include: What are the current struggles for minority founders? How can we execute on a call to action to elevate products and ideas for individuals of color? What are creative vehicles that support investments for these founders? A huge thank you to our panelists: - Tiffany Yarde, Founder & CEO, SHOKi - Maggie Connors, Founder & CEO, Besito - Joyce Cenali, Partner & Chief Operating Officer, Big Rock Partners
