David: I’m David Kretzmann, I’m here at MJBizcon. I’m joined by a special guest, Brendan Kennedy, the co-founder and CEO of Tilray, and I thought we could just dive in by going into Privateer Holdings and Tilray, and maybe you could talk a little bit about your background with both those entities, and how they’re related.
Brendan: Sounds great. Thanks, David. So, I founded Privateer Holdings about eight years ago. Started in Silicon Valley, came across this industry and became fascinated by it, and spent a lotta time researching the cannabis industry in 2010 and 2011. And about five years ago, I was approached by some members of the Canadian government who were looking to implement a new regulatory framework here in Canada. And at Privateer, we had raised capital from investors around the world to invest specifically in the cannabis industry.
