The cannabis industry is at a pivotal moment, with women playing increasingly significant roles in shaping its future. Chelsea Haskins, vice president of licensing and legal strategy for MWG Holdings' flagship retail brand, Perfect Union, is set to share her expertise at the 2025 Women in Cannabis Expo (WICE) in Reno, Nevada. Her participation underscores the growing influence of women in a sector that is rapidly evolving both in terms of regulation and market dynamics.
Haskins will deliver a keynote titled 'One Legal License at a Time,' focusing on navigating California's complex dispensary licensing process. Her presentation aims to demystify the challenges of entering or expanding within one of the most competitive and regulated cannabis markets in the world. 'The licensing process in California can be daunting, but it's not impossible,' Haskins remarked, emphasizing the importance of preparation and community in overcoming industry hurdles.
In addition to her keynote, Haskins will participate in a panel discussion, 'The 3 P Words: Policy, Power and Progress,' alongside other female leaders in the cannabis space. This session will explore how women are influencing policy, building power, and driving progress in the industry. The WICE serves as a critical platform for empowerment and education, offering networking opportunities and insights for women navigating the cannabis sector.
The significance of Haskins' participation at WICE cannot be overstated. As the cannabis industry continues to grow, the need for diverse leadership and inclusive policies becomes increasingly apparent. Events like WICE not only highlight the achievements of women in cannabis but also pave the way for future generations of female leaders.
