Complimentary Webinar: Unveiling 7 Success Factors for a Cannabis Extraction Lab Setup

CloudLIMS is pleased to announce a complimentary webinar titled “Unveiling 7 Success Factors for a Cannabis Extraction Lab Setup” on November 29, 2022, at 9 AM PST (5 P.M. BST). The webinar will be presented by Martha Hernández, Scientist, CloudLIMS.com.

Webinar Overview

The cannabis extraction industry is currently worth more than 10 billion dollars, and it is expected to reach 23.7 billion by 2027. The more states legalize cannabis, the higher the value of the industry. Even with the high initial costs, cannabis extraction could be a highly profitable long-term business. Nonetheless, failing to put in place appropriate structures can be detrimental.

Finding an appropriate location and implementing proper measures to ensure compliance and management of the staff, waste, equipment, inventory, and supply chain are vital. Failure at these critical points would result in substantial financial losses and even license cancellation. In this complimentary webinar, we will discuss seven key factors you must consider when setting up a cannabis extraction facility and how a Cannabis LIMS can help you overcome operational and regulatory challenges.

Key Takeaways

• A review of the benefits of in-house testing for cannabis extractors.
• Seven key factors to consider when setting up a cannabis extraction facility.
• How a cannabis LIMS can help you keep up with regulations and requirements of setting up a cannabis extraction lab.

Webinar Duration: 40 minutes

The webinar includes 30-minutes of presentation and 10-minutes of Q&A session.
