Cannabis Business Times
U.S. cannabis-industry trade press
Cannabis Business Times is a trade publication owned by Noelle Skodzinski through her company Transpire Media LLC, which she acquired back from GIE Media in 2024. It targets owners, operators, and investors in the legal cannabis industry, providing business intelligence rather than general-audience news. Its coverage of the Trump administration reflects the industry's mixed experience: reporting factually on federal rescheduling moves while also documenting enforcement actions that threaten licensed operators.
