This marks the first time since 1970 that the federal government has recognized marijuana as having accepted medical use.

Marijuana Venture is now accepting nominations for its 11th annual 40 under 40. The special feature has highlighted more than 400 rising stars in cannabis since its inception in 2016. This year’s special section will be published in the Summer issue of Marijuana Venture, which is expected to start reaching subscribers in early June.
