Mike helped us to win a critical RFP.  We beat out 96 applicants.  The government officials still talk about how in-depth and thorough it was. He proactively pulled together a dozen outside vendors through his own relationships to round out our solution.  He knew what was needed to deliver a win.  Most importantly, We had an extremely tight timeline that was almost impossible to meet.  It was an impressive project management feat. 

As for Mike in particular, I have great things to say about him. The highlights would be; 1) he takes complete ownership of a task; 2) he follows-up; he works all hours of the day; 3) he likes it when the client has a win. 

Mike is a professional. I would not hesitate to recommend him. I would hire him to join my team at META.

-Mark Goliger Meta CEO

Richmond engaged Michael to help audit the company’s Health Canada licensure status in 2019 and to develop a solid plan to get to licensing in a timely manner.  Michael’s reliability and speed at which he makes things happen is unparalleled, always true to his word, honest, and always met or surpassed his deliverables.  While the engagement was based on licensing, Michel’s knowledge of the industry, resourcefulness, and network was invaluable in the process.

I have worked with Mike Elkin on numerous initiatives within Canada and internationally since 2013. In various capacities from security, regulatory, business development and sourcing acquisitions / investments. He has been a trusted advisor (both in an official capacity and unofficial capacity) for me and has a “get things done” approach. He is one of my key contacts of all things cannabis in Canada and internationally and an absolute hustler.

Both myself and CannMart have had great experiences working alongside and with Michael. A consummate professional and easily accessible. His response time is uncanny and always was able to add value to any project we engaged him for. I would not hesitate to recommend or work with Michael again in the future.

Managing Director CannMart

I have personally known Michael for the last 7 years throughout my time in the global cannabis space. I had the pleasure of working alongside him while I was at CCI. Michael continuously brings his very best to every project that I have worked with him. His reputation as a connector and business development expert is true in every sense. I look forward to continuing our business relationship and the bright road ahead.

-Deepak Anand CEO Materia Ventures

I’ve known Mike for a number of years dating back to when I ran Emblem Cannabis. We hired Michael and his team for numerous projects during that time. I’ve always found I’m to be very plugged into the global cannabis industry and appreciated his view and advice when it came to a number of needs we were looking for or projects we wanted to complete in a timely manner. I consider him to be one of the more knowledgeable people in the space and definitely look forward to Robes working with him on some upcoming projects.
