We take no stance on the legalization of cannabis across the nation. Our goal is to provide unbiased, authoritative, and actionable data that will allow our users: investors, policy makers, researchers and academics to make informed decisions in this growing industry.

Until recently, the multibillion dollar cannabis industry has been guided by little to no business intelligence, rooted in a lack of vetted and comprehensive data. New Frontier Data’s proprietary approach to data, meta-tagging, and analysis make it possible for investors, policy makers, researchers and operators to make informed decisions in the cannabis industry, while minimizing risk  – all based on authoritative and trusted intelligence.

We do not compare ourselves to anyone else in the industry today. New Frontier Data is looking to service those who want to better understand the industry by providing them with vetted, comprehensive, and ultimately more reliable data to improve their research and analysis. While our own reports focus on proprietary analytical methodology, we welcome others to use our data and run their own analysis, thus supporting the industry’s continued growth in a transparent and sustainable manner.

Data is defined as statistics and facts that are collected together to reference or analyze.

Big Data is a complex collection of data from multiple sources, rapidly accumulated for ongoing discovery and analysis. In depth analyses of big data is instrumental in risk reduction, cost reduction and greater operational efficiency for any industry.

Big Data and its proper analysis is crucial for operators, investors, legislators, and researchers alike to make educated decision based on true statistically meaningful facts.

The difference between Data and Big Data can be summarized by noting the 3 key areas of differentiation: Velocity, Volume, and Variety, whereby Big Data must cover millions of data points, across many data sets, as close to real time as possible

On average we publish one to two reports per month.

Equio® is a proprietary data and analytics online platform created by New Frontier Data, the premier data-analytics and industry-reporting firm in the cannabis industry.

To save time, have access to vetted and reliable industry data and insight, and to stay ahead of risks and opportunities within the legal cannabis industry globally. Until recently, the multi-billion dollar cannabis industry has been guided by little to no business intelligence, rooted in the lack of access to vetted or sufficiently comprehensive industry data. Data required for research and decision-making, whether legislative, operational, or for investment purposes, data remains fragmented and scattered across borders and industry segments. New Frontier Data has built the technological infrastructure, and has adopted the necessary data ingestion, aggregation, and reporting protocols, to enable stakeholders to ensure data integrity, user privacy, and ultimately real-time access to cannabis industry references, analysis, and insights centralized within one trusted online platform, Equio®.

Upon completion of checkout, you should have received an email with the subject of Welcome to Equio® (.

• Check your spam or junk folder in your email program as the Welcome email may have gotten marked as spam.
• If you do not see our email in your spam or junk folder, you can reset your password here.

Once you have retrieved your login credentials, visit the login page.

New Frontier Data has provided data aggregation capabilities for years now. We leverage our big data engine to ingest, normalize (scrub), and process publicly available data, our proprietary data (whether collected via our own surveys or purchased) and licensed third-party data, which we have rights to via dozens of partnerships across the industry. All the data on our Equio platform is further processed and analyzed to ultimately deliver fact-based actionable cannabis business intelligence.

Due to the still fragmented and maturing nature of the cannabis industry data infrastructure, not to mention the lack of standards across data collection and reporting, we mostly provide evergreen reporting, except for public market indices, news curation, and some additional market benchmarks.

Most of our data sets are updated daily or as regulations change – weekly, quarterly, or twice yearly depending on the data set.

TIP: Click the (i) icon in any Interactive Data Widget to open the Tool Tip for more insights into the data source and frequency of updates.

Our Equio® online platform provides digital, visualized and interactive access to a combination of quantitative and qualitative data in the form of raw streams, indices, market benchmarks, curated news and analytical content across both vertical and geographic segments. Equio® is primarily targeted at market or financial researchers and analysts, whether within the cannabis industry or outside looking in, so most data and business intelligence delivered addresses some financially material aspect of the cannabis space.

Within the Equio® Data Marketplace, users downloading, for example a Data Bundle on our Global Cannabis Report: 2019 Industry Outlook will have access to total cannabis consumer data sets by region, consumption figures by region, as well as the various underlying data points supporting global market sizing to include both legal and illegal sales. Data sets in our Cannabis Consumer, Archetypes and Trends Data Bundle include insights from our survey of over 3000 cannabis consumers on things like frequency of use and average cannabis spending, as well as consumer behavior profiling data.

The great majority of cannabis industry stakeholders today are looking for data and insight to help them invest, research, and/or operate. As one of Equio^®’s benefits is saving subscribers valuable time in this fast paced industry, we have created custom dashboards for each area of interest, providing easy and quick access to the most relevant and actionable data and insights pertinent to that particular areas of interest.

 Both. We can set up APIs for electronic data communication with our partners, and also provide Equio^® subscribers the ability to download reports, graphs, and data sets from Equio^®’s Data Marketplace in a variety of formats.

We are here to assist you! We offer multiple ways to learn how to use Equio®, including:
