By Troy Dayton, The ArcView Group (CA)

I became a founding board member of the NCIA because I believe that the development of a responsible, politically engaged, and profitable legal cannabis industry will be the single biggest factor leading to a day when not a single adult is punished for this plant. Through my work at The ArcView Group I do everything I can to promote the NCIA by giving NCIA stage time to pitch our 180+ investors at every meeting, inviting NCIA Executive Director Aaron Smith to introduce any political figures that come to speak at our events, and by inviting NCIA staff onto our market research report webinars. We offer a significant discount to NCIA members for membership in the ArcView Investor Network and for purchase of the the 2nd Edition of the State of the Legal Marijuana Markets report. We are also collaborating with NCIA on a jobs report. I also include NCIA’s logo in my auto-signature and mention them often when talking to media. I focus my attention as a board member mainly on fundraising and member development efforts since that is a special way that I can help. I don’t think I’ve ever missed a meeting or a phone call. I stand for not just building a new industry, but building a new kind of industry built on a social mission of health, wellness, responsibility, and freedom. We are part of one of the most incredible social, political, and economic stories of our time. With that comes great responsibility to make sure we write the history books in a way that continues to bring tremendous value to the world. I hope I can count on you for your vote.
