About Morgan Paxhia

Morgan Paxhia is the co-founder and managing director of Poseidon Asset Management, a venture capital firm he launched in 2013 with his sister Emily and Christopher Otchy to specialize exclusively in cannabis and hemp investing. His investment thesis targets the entire cannabis ecosystem, allocating roughly 50% to plant-touching companies, 40% to cannabis technology, and 10% to industrial hemp, with a focus on early-stage ventures across the United States. While specific check sizes and lead/follow behavior are not publicly detailed, Poseidon is known for providing institutional capital to an industry historically lacking mainstream financial support. Notable portfolio companies include Hub, a retail platform, and Ident Cannabis, a digital marketplace for wholesale transactions and lab analysis. Paxhia and his firm distinguish themselves by being pioneers in focusing on technology firms within the cannabis industry before diversifying their strategy. He has publicly articulated this evolution in interviews, such as on the Meb Faber Show, where he discussed how operational efficiency is critical for growers to survive in the sector.
