Quantum 9 is a medical cannabis consulting firm. Our California medical cannabis consultants help physicians, entrepreneurs, investors, and licensed operators navigate California’s medical cannabis program — from licensing and regulatory compliance to patient-focused operations and M&A.
California’s Medical Cannabis Program
California legalized medical cannabis with the Compassionate Use Act (Proposition 215) in 1996. Under the state’s cannabis regulatory framework, commercial medical cannabis businesses hold medicinal (“M-type”) state licenses and serve patients with a physician’s recommendation.
Regulatory Agency
The California Department of Cannabis Control (DCC) licenses and regulates medicinal cannabis businesses statewide, alongside local permitting by cities and counties.
