CannaBiz Pathways: Insurance Considerations for the Cannabis Industry
Protect Your Cannabis Business: Insurance Strategies That Actually Work
Navigating insurance in the cannabis industry can feel overwhelming — especially with risks across cultivation, processing, retail, and transport. Traditional policies often fall short, leaving businesses exposed to costly gaps.
Join us for an essential workshop designed to help cannabis business owners, investors, and advisors confidently protect their operations. You’ll learn the key types of coverage every cannabis operator should consider — including general liability, product liability, crop coverage, property damage, workers’ compensation, and D&O (directors & officers) insurance.
We’ll also break down:
✅ Common policy exclusions
✅ How to evaluate cannabis-focused insurance providers
✅ Risk-management strategies that strengthen long-term success
You’ll leave with actionable insights to build a comprehensive insurance strategy that protects your people, products, and future growth.
