Strategic Advisory Services
By Mark Allen, Transformation Strategist AI Advisor & User, Board Academy Alumni
Overview With over three decades of experience driving transformation at organizations such as Deloitte Consulting, Katalyst Venture Partners, Comcast, and PNC Bank, I have assisted early-stage companies in securing capital, expanding market share through acquisitions, and extending product lines. Additionally, I have contributed to the enhancement of customer and employee experiences across multiple Fortune 50 companies.
These credentials are highly pertinent to members of the Cannabis industry, who encounter comparable challenges in developing compelling value propositions for customers, distribution partners, investors, and regulators within an emerging sector. Those who succeed in this environment will develop robust strategies that facilitate capital acquisition for technology investments, streamline operations, enable comprehensive regulatory compliance with advanced reporting capabilities, and drive sustainable growth through technology-enabled initiatives.
