Michael Sassano, Founder, CEO, Solaris Farms

Although his exciting career has led him to be involved in the fast-paced worlds of international real estate development, high-level banking, and cutting edge tech-investing, it is the cannabis space where Michael Sassano has always shined the brightest. Michael is well known as one of the original movers and shakers in this sector, celebrated prominently in both mainstream business and cannabis media for his contributions to cultivation technology and as an industry futurist with a proven track record of successfully predicting trends and policy directions.

After years of partnering and investing with many startups in the global cannabis industry, both in the private sector and publicly traded companies, Michael came to the conclusion that greenhouse growing would be the future of large scale cannabis cultivation; this would become a necessary focus to supply the massive medical and recreational markets as legality became widespread. He understood that compared to traditional outdoor growing, hybrid greenhouses provided the ability to produce a large volume of high-quality yields, with a lower cost structure, increased profitability, and even a net positive impact on the environment.
