Dean Guske got involved as a CPA with the cannabis industry and helping businesses enter a new industry, which at the time was lacking clear rules and guidance. Five years ago Dean spoke to BBRC about the challenges facing companies in this newly legalized industry in Washington State. Today we will get an update on how the industry and the rules and policies that guide it have matured. This will include not only what has changed but also the challenges facing the industry in the future.
