Ben Larson is a cannabis advocate who put his money where his mouth is when he founded the wryly-named Gateway Incubator — a business accelerator which funds start-ups that use cannabis in innovative ways.
At TOA 2016, Ben aimed to change the narrative around cannabis. He spoke passionately, aiming to dispel the myths, and to open eyes to what he sees as a powerful plant packed with compounds.
In his version of the near-future, we’ll be using drugs derived from cannabis which bring us better sleep patterns, relief from untreatable health conditions, and targeted enhancement for discrete areas of our lives — in both work and play.
