Business Investors Watch Georgia’s Cannabis Debate
Tuesday, January 20th, 2015
Next year, Georgia may legalize its own home-grown medical marijuana industry if a Macon lawmaker has his way. Meanwhile, some companies and nonprofits are lined up, waiting for the door to open.
A demand exists in Georgia for at least some types of medical cannabis, said Jake Bergmann, CEO of Surterra, an “innovative agriculture” company in Atlanta that was incorporated last year and is looking into opportunities to supply that demand.
“Surterra is looking at medical legalization across multiple states ... with a focus on Georgia,” he said.
