'Ganjapreneuers' scramble for chance at Florida medical marijuana industry
"It's like the early days of the Internet," said Walt Blenner, an attorney for Paul Caputo, a Palm Harbor dentist who has filed for three Tampa Bay business licenses with "medical marijuana" in the name. "Some people are jumping full-speed into this … and we're all sitting around trying to figure out what's going to happen next."
Pot pioneers are already making money in the 21 states, plus the nation's capital, that now allow medical cannabis. America's legal-weed market is expected to bloom to $2.5 billion this year, and pass $10 billion in 2018, according to analysts with ArcView Group, a canna-business investment network.
The stakes are especially high in Florida, which analysts say could become the second-largest medical-marijuana state in the country behind California, with hundreds of thousands of patients and $780 million a year in sales.
