Clients in the group span all aspects of the industry, including brands, dispensaries, consumer products, ancillary products, technology and data providers, and professional service and financial service firms.

“All startups need to take PR seriously, especially as they seek funding and look to build their customer bases. While we’ve worked closely together with N6A over the past two years to elevate Canopy’s media presence, having their presence in the office on a daily basis will add yet another helpful mentor for our accelerator cohort and alumni,” said Micah Tapman, Managing Director of Canopy.

Leadership from the N6A Cannabis Group will be featured at an upcoming Canopy event session, “PR in Cannabis: Manage your Message.” The session will take place at CanopyHQ in Boulder, Colorado on Tuesday, March 27th, from 6-8pm MT during Canopy’s monthly meetup.
