Hello I am interested in knowing about any companies that might be exploring marijuana/cannabis in the tech community. I know Microsoft recently did with Kind Financial. Any others quietly exploring? At Microsoft who is involved in the cannabis project? Any contact details? I am also interested in any tech people interested in creating a start up in the cannabis space with me. I have been in the industry for 5 years and am looking for some tech professionals in all areas to build with.

This looks good. This is one of the potential concepts I wanted to explore. I would have some modifications based on what I know. If you know anyone interested in creating such a thing let me know.
I'd be interested to know if Microsoft or Amazon employees can go to work high since marijuana is legal in Washington. Or at company parties, if there's booze, is there also edibles, etc.?
They don't care as long as you get your work done
Can you go to work drunk since alcohol is legal in all 50 states? Until fairly recently edibles at parties would have been illegal unless you brought your own as sharing used to be a crime
^exactly - I think this is generally true - most tech companies don't drug test or care. Many of the founders were consumers lol
Not to mention SJ and his recommendations that others drop acid to increase their vision 😉
Lol... I have heard this. As for me I couldn't work and be under any influence - alcohol or anything because my thoughts go absolutely everywhere. Only in brainstorming and networking is this a good idea.
I have a really fun idea I've been kicking around. Would be hard though.
I will PM you

I read the Glassdoor comments. Do they have a CEO at all right now?
In what way - many cannabis companies have a lot of flux and change in operational management
I am a pretty good Salesforce admin adept at building a CRM you could use for your business. not sure I'd quit my full time job but am interested to hear more about your ideas and could contribute part time.
I have a project that I may need your help
PM me?
I take back my comment, it was so silly..
?
I mean slightly similar challenges with like more risk but definitely a good payoff chance..

I'd be interested to hear ideas at worst in a good devils advocate
Great - I already have a cannabis consulting company and have helped to launch a trade org. I am interested in people who are able to help build databases, apps, websites, etc who want to be a part of a start up and can help brainstorm and create. I already have the industry knowledge and connects.
I'm interested in doing service design and UX researc/design for dispensaries.
