Program Launches To Help NJ Residents Navigate Cannabis Industry

CINNAMINSON, NJ — When Cinnaminson Township Committee gave final approval to legislation permitting recreational marijuana establishments that are approved by the state to open within the township Monday night, it opened the door for Cinnaminson residents to get involved in the business.

As municipalities across the state, including Cinnaminson, consider legislation regarding recreational marijuana businesses, entrepreneurs within the township are looking to get involved in the industry.

As they get their opportunity, Chicago-based Cognitive Harmony Technologies has opened pre-registration for their accelerator program for New Jersey applicants, the group announced on Wednesday.

The purpose of this program is to assist cannabis business applicants with their application process in order to become licensed cannabis operators.

Many of those hoping to pursue a license lack expertise or financial resources to achieve their goals in the burgeoning cannabis industry, CHT said. The group aims to level the playing field by giving applicants the tools necessary to navigate the complex and highly regulated world of cannabis.

The CHT accelerator program provides courses, learning materials, tutorials, presentations, templates, coaching, and study guides in both English and Spanish for every aspect of the application.

“CHT Accelerator was designed by successful license applicants to level the cannabis business playing field for social equity applicants as they apply for licenses and operate their businesses,” Cognitive Harmony Technologies Managing Partner Dave Serrano said.

Those who register early will receive a $2,000 discount on the accelerator program and other products. Once general registration opens on Aug. 1, the cost will be $16,000 per application.

Cognitive Harmony Technologies also hosts free, weekly, 90-minute briefings on the legalization of cannabis in New Jersey, Illinois, and other states across the country. During the briefings, attendees have an opportunity to hear from experts as government entities develop organizational policies and procedures in real-time.

The goal is to provide applicants with helpful strategies to help cannabis startups navigate through the highly regulated and emerging recreational cannabis industry, the group said. Each briefing includes an open question and answer session. Interested applicants can register by visiting www.cognitiveharmony.tech/resources/events.
