Archytas Ventures is a private, opportunistic investment firm, with offices in New York and Los Angeles, focused on the emerging and undercapitalized cannabis industry.

Despite the backdrop of rapid growth, medical innovation, increasing legalization efforts, and tremendous consumer demand, many large companies including financial institutions, publicly listed firms, and institutional investors (pension funds/endowments) are unable to participate in the cannabis industry due to Federal regulation. Further, legal complexity has substantially limited the ability for cannabis businesses to expand outside of the primary state in which they operate. And, due to the infancy of the market and its history as a black market illegal business, many of the existing management teams lack the corporate background and sophistication necessary to compete as the market expands, and inevitably, becomes fully legitimized.
