Roz McCarthy, who founded Minorities for Medical Marijuana (M4MM) in 2016, has often been called a unique force within the cannabis community based on her 20-plus years of business expertise now combined with her passion for equity within the medical marijuana industry - all of which are making Benzinga extra proud to have her as a featured speaker at the upcoming Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference on April 20-21.
Florida-based M4MM, McCarthy points out, is an advocacy group as well as an ever-expanding network of partnerships that seek to provide real opportunities for people of color in the cannabis industry. No one would dispute that the industry has a long way to go on gender and racial diversity at the executive level as well as just about every other level.
