Lindsay Hoover and Simeon Schnapper, Managing Partners of JLS Fund - a podcast by MJToday Media

Lindsay Hoover and Simeon Schnapper, Managing Partners of JLS Fund, an early-stage plant fund focused on novel molecule and whole plant drug development and discovery; treatment centers and clinical networks; cultivation, formulation, extraction and processing; and supporting infrastructure are this week’s guests on The Green Rush! 







JLS, a $50M fund and one of the first funds in the space leading similar investment charges. We talk with them about the burgeoning psychedelics space and what elements of the industry have caught their attention. We also cover their fundraising efforts during the COVID-19 crisis, their thoughts on the wave of psychedelic companies listing on public exchanges, JLS’ portfolio and what’s exciting them the most about the space. 







This was a really fun conversation that goes into great detail on the growth of psychedelics and how seasoned investors are monitoring the space. Lindsay and Simeon are extremely knowledgeable not just on what the space looks like today but how exciting it could become in the near and long-term. 







So don’t sit back, lean forward and enjoy!
