New Cannabis Ventures is a news & information platform offered by NCV Media, LLC that highlights promising companies and influential investors in the cannabis industry. NCV is a cannabis-centric marketing & communications company.
Vision
Our vision is to become the leading provider of relevant information in the cannabis industry by contributing original content and curating quality news on the most promising businesses and influential investors, and helping to bridge the gaps between cannabis industry entrepreneurs and investors.
Mission
The cannabis industry is quickly transforming from the black market to one that is highly regulated but quite complex. Rapid change, federal illegality, stigma, and confusing regulations all contribute to difficulties in connecting with entrepreneurs, investors, and professional service providers. While much progress has been made, it remains extremely challenging to identify legitimate companies, real investors and capable service providers. New Cannabis Ventures informs and connects all of those who seek to contribute to the success of this new industry.

Leadership
Alan Brochstein, CFA
Based in Houston, Alan leverages his experience as founder of online community 420 Investor, the first and still largest due diligence platform focused on the publicly-traded stocks in the cannabis industry. Alan has transitioned it to Seeking Alpha, where he has been a contributor since 2007. With his extensive network in the cannabis community, Alan continues to find new ways to connect the industry and facilitate its sustainable growth.
At New Cannabis Ventures, he is responsible for content development and strategic alliances. Before shifting his focus to the cannabis industry in early 2013, Alan, who began his career on Wall Street in 1986, worked as an independent research analyst following over two decades in research and portfolio management. A prolific writer, with over 700 articles published since 2007 at Seeking Alpha, where he has more than 70,000 followers, Alan is a frequent speaker at industry conferences and a frequent source to the media, including the NY Times, the Wall Street Journal, Fox Business, and Bloomberg TV, and has written columns for Leafly and Forbes.
Alan maintains a personal blog, and you can find out more about him there. He writes about cannabis stocks primarily at 420 Investor, Seeking Alpha and in the weekly newsletter here at NCV, but he sometimes shares his thinking on the cannabis sector there too.
