At Seed Talent, our commitment to equality in the space is unwavering.
We’ve designed an easily accessible education platform tailored for the next generation of leaders in the cannabis industry. Recognizing the longstanding adverse impacts of the war on drugs on certain communities, we’re taking proactive steps to ensure they find their rightful place in this booming market.
Our aim goes beyond just education.
We serve as a bridge, effectively connecting hiring employers with a reservoir of historically underutilized yet incredibly valuable talent. As we champion the cause of cannabis equity, we’re raising the bar. We’re not just fostering professional growth for future leaders in cannabis, but also emphasizing our dedication to equality by assisting those individuals and communities seeking restitution in the flourishing cannabis space.
