Welcome to the Under the Microscope with Jenny Podcast! I’m your host, Jenny Germano - the founder of ICS Consulting. With over 16 years of hands-on experience in the Regulated Cannabis Industry, I’ve spent 6 years operating vertically integrated licensed facilities in Colorado and the last 10 years consulting nationally across the U.S. This podcast is dedicated to new and existing Cannabis operators and to those looking to launch a licensed Cannabis business, whether it’s a Dispensary, Cultivation, Manufacturing, or Transport/Delivery operation, in one state or across multiple. Each week, I will dive into real-world topics focused on starting and running a Regulated Cannabis business in the U.S. marketplace. Expect candid conversations on compliance, market-specific insights, startup pitfalls, operational strategies, and tips to manage the overwhelm that comes with launching and scaling in this complex industry. I’ve curated discussions with industry experts, alongside weekly deep dives with me sharing what I’ve learned from working in the trenches of regulated Cannabis operations. Whether you’re just entering the industry or scaling up, this is your go-to resource for real talk, real truths, expert insights, and actionable strategies. I am cutting through the noise and revealing what it truly takes to succeed in the cannabis industry.
