Fit Banking

Cannabis is a "competitive industry," and those looking to build their business in the space, should "embrace it." That's according to Kevin Hart, the founder and CEO of Green Check Verified, a leader in banking solutions for the cannabis industry. To get the much-needed capital, all you need to do is not be afraid of the competitive environment, he told those gathered at the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference in Florida on Tuesday. "There's access to financial and business services at your fingertips," Hart said, adding "you just have to be prepared to share some information." For Adam Stettner, the founder and CEO of FundCanna, who joined Hart and two other industry experts - Ryan Himmel, vice president and head of strategic partnerships at LeafLink and Sahar Ayinehsazian, a partner in Vicente LLP's Los Angeles office - on the stage at The Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood in a panel moderated by Jeanne M. Sullivan, chief investment officer at Arcview Ventures, that information is how the money will be used."
