Cannabis sales totaled $6.7 billion in 2016 and the industry is growing larger and faster than the dot-com era. The dot-com era grew at a rate of 22%, while cannabis is growing at 30% in its early stages.

"The only consumer industry categories I've seen reach $5 billion in annual spending and then post anything like 25% compound annual growth in the next five years are cable television (19%) in the 1990s and broadband Internet (29%) in the 2000s," says Tom Adams, Editor in Chief of Arcview Market Research. "You will not find another multi-billion dollar market growing at a 25% compound annual growth rate anywhere in the world that is not already filled with multi-national companies and institutional investors," says Troy Dayton, CEO of Arcview Market Research, "That's part of what makes the cannabis industry such a unique opportunity for investors and entrepreneurs."
