About Us

Cannabis Business Times is owned by Transpire Media, based in southern New Jersey. CBT’s mission is to help accelerate the success of legal cannabis cultivators, retailers and other plant-touching businesses by providing actionable intelligence in all aspects of the business, from legislation, regulation and compliance news to analysis of industry trends, as well as expert advice and the latest research on cultivation, marketing, financial topics, legal issues and more.

CBT focuses strictly on the business of legal cannabis for medical and adult use and aims to provide timely information, through a variety of platforms, to help the reader make timely, informed decisions to help them run their businesses better and more profitably, and to help individuals advance their careers in the ever-evolving cannabis market.

In 2018, Cannabis Business Times was named Magazine of the Year by the American Society of Business Publication Editors, and named as runner up in 2019. Its editorial team has won many awards for individual and team reporting.
