Budding Marijuana Businesses to be Mentored by Medical Marijuana Inc. & Wellness Managed Services' MPSI at Las Vegas Expo
June 18 2014 - 9:00AM
Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC Pink:MJNA) is pleased to announce that
its subsidiary, Wellness Managed Services' MPS International
(MPSI), is a sponsor of the inaugural International Cannabis
Association "Green to Green" networking and educational conference
at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino June 22-23. During the
conference, MPSI Managing Director and security industry veteran
Michael Julian and others will mentor business professionals
interested in establishing marijuana-related businesses. New York
Senator and medical marijuana advocate Diane Savino is currently
pushing for medical use policy reform in her state and is a keynote
speaker at the 7:00 a.m. fundraiser breakfast on Monday, June 24.
"Just as the U.S. ended alcohol prohibition, I feel that the
stigma associated with marijuana for medical or recreational use is
shifting to the point of acceptance," states Michael Julian,
Managing Director of MPSI. "The fact is legalization of
marijuana-based businesses has led to new job creation, business
revenue and state tax collection. While this is extremely positive
for the domestic economy, business owners must be aware of the
potential for an increase in crime rates as this industry evolves.
Taking a proactive stance on crime prevention is critical for any
new business in this emerging industry."
As more states and countries discuss legalization and
decriminalization of medical and adult recreational use of
marijuana, MPSI is taking a proactive approach to crime prevention
in a "cash and carry" industry. During the "Green to Green"
conference, MPSI's Michael Julian will speak about the importance
of solid physical and video surveillance security plan and secured
cash and revenue transport as the foundations of business planning
in the cannabis industry.
"Owners and workers in the cannabis industry seem certain that
the federal government, which of course thoroughly regulates the
banking industry, will not allow a 'cannabis co-op' to provide
basic banking services like a checking account." Julian continues.
"In several states, the cannabis industry is cash-only now that
businesses can't take their revenue to the bank and, predictably,
all that cash is leading to big-time crime."
In current and future legal markets, cannabis industry-specific
services provided by MPSI include: armed and unarmed security for
retail and grow operations, electronic security and surveillance,
armored vehicle inventory and revenue transport, secure cash
storage, compliance oversight, and workplace protection for medical
and adult recreational use.
Dan Humiston, co-founder of the International Cannabis
Association states, "As a leader in the security industry, the
International Cannabis Association is proud to have MPSI exhibiting
at our expo in Las Vegas."
