Despite challenges posed by the global pandemic, the legalized cannabis market is expected to grow significantly in the next five years. The market was valued at approximately $19.96 billion in 2018, and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 17.2% during the forecast period, most likely topping $81.47 billion by the end of 2027, according to a recent market forecast report from Transparency Market Research (https://nnw.fm/5Cjx7).
With more states and countries worldwide pushing for legalization of cannabis, new opportunities are being created specifically for this sector. Most recently, Malta, the EU’s smallest member state, became the first EU country to legalize the cultivation and personal use of cannabis by its citizens (https://nnw.fm/ugeff). Even colleges and universities are beginning to acknowledge the future of the industry – offering certificate-bearing classes. One example is Syracuse University (“SU”), which has partnered with California-based cannabis education company Green Flower to begin offering students access to certificate programs starting in January. The legalization of cannabis has already shown great promise in New York, creating an additional 77,000 new job opportunities in 2020.
“Despite the stigma from the past that still remains around cannabis, the industry itself has an explosive growth pattern that is truly unique and is going to create more opportunities, more jobs, more income and more taxes to the state than any other sector right now,” Green Flower CEO and co-founder Max Simon stated (https://nnw.fm/8J6HW). Each of the certificate programs will be six months long from start to certification and revolve around different aspects of the cannabis industry, ranging from business, law/policy to medical applications and more.
