Times seem to be changing for the cannabis industry.
Earlier this year, MassRoots was rejected from inclusion despite winning a contest to part part of the popular TechCrunch contest, but the TechCrunch Disrupt 2015 Battlefield finalists include both Green Bits, a California-based, Washington-focused provider of software to cannabis retailers, as well as Agrilyst, a greenhouse data analytics provider with at least some focus on the cannabis industry.
Matthew Pannzarino discussed all of the finalists in “Announcing The TechCrunch Disrupt SF 2015 Battlefield Finalists”: http://techcrunch.com/2015/09/22/announcing-the-techcrunch-disrupt-sf-2015-battlefield-finalists/
