an investment company dedicated to the US cannabis sector endeavoring to
provide turn-key solutions for the regulated cannabis industry, recently
announced the addition of Nicholas J. Zitelli, a.k.a. “Nico Escondido,” to its board of directors.

Chemistree’s
President, Karl Kottmeier, stated, "As Chemistree continues its focus on
building one of the world's leading cannabis companies, it is critical to have
an experienced board to put us in the best possible position to achieve
success. These are exciting times for
Chemistree and Nico represents another outstanding addition to our board of
directors on our path of rapid growth.
The High Times Cannabis Cup is the most prestigious and extensive
cannabis-related competition in the world and having his broad
knowledge/specialized expertise, impressive network and reputation will be
invaluable assets to the Company’s strategic direction.”
FSD Pharma Inc. (CSE:
HUGE)
(OTCQB:
FSDDF)
has also realized the importance of having industry pioneers on the board,
having announced the appointment of
Charles V. Pollack, Jr., M.A., M.D., FACEP, FAAEM, FAHA, FACC, FESC, FCPP, as
Chairman of its Scientific Advisory Board. In this capacity, Dr. Pollack will
serve as a strategic guide and resource to the Company as it develops
disruptive, science-based, cannabinoid therapeutics.
Dr.
Charles Pollack is an international leader in emergency medicine and founded
The Lambert Center for the Study of Medicinal Cannabis and Hemp at Thomas
Jefferson University, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2016. The Center is the
only comprehensive academic resource for education, research and practice
around the use of medicinal cannabinoids to be housed in a US university. He is
the only physician to have received the American College of Emergency
Physicians' highest national awards in both teaching and research; he also
received the national teaching award from the Council of Emergency Medicine
Residency Directors. He is the only US emergency physician to be elected a
Fellow of the European Society of Cardiology. He is also an Editorial Board
member of the journal Cannabis and
Cannabinoid Research.
Industry
awards like the High Times 100 have helped recognize these industry pioneers
ong with SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CSE:
SLNG),
a leading cannabis consumer packaged goods company, who recently announced that co-founders
Peter Miller and Billy Levy have been honored as High Times 100 Most
Influential People in Cannabis for 2019 for their leadership in the cannabis
industry. The High Times 100 is recognized as the highest honor for a cannabis
executive or entrepreneur.
Peter and Billy said, "On behalf of
SLANG Worldwide's amazing teams and best-selling brands and fantastic partners,
we are thrilled to be honored by High Times 100. The cannabis industry has been
built by passionate mavericks from all walks of life and all over the world
whose efforts and results are now becoming more accepted and welcomed, and we
are proud to work alongside these people every day. We look forward to
continuing to grow SLANG businesses in a responsible and inclusive way for our
customers, communities, industry partners and investors."
The same can be said for The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (TSX: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) who congratulated its President and Founder, John Fowler for also being
named to High Times list of The 100 Most Influential People in Cannabis.
Mr. Fowler, a pioneer of the Canadian
cannabis industry, spent over a decade in the medical cannabis sector as a
cultivator, influencer, patients-rights advocate and lawyer. In 2013, Mr.
Fowler founded Supreme Cannabis' wholly-owned subsidiary 7ACRES with a clear
vision: to create Canada's leading premium cannabis flower brand and produce
high quality cannabis on a commercial scale. Today, 7ACRES is one of Canada's
leading premium brands. Mr. Fowler is also Vice Chair, Adult Use and Director
of the Cannabis Council of Canada, the leading organization of Canada's
licensed producers of Cannabis under Health Canada's federal Cannabis Act.
The industry may be progressing at a
seemingly break-neck pace and as many other industry experts and directors from
big tobacco, alcohol and pharmaceuticals flock to be a part of it, it is good
to see there is still recognition for the pioneers and early adopters. Cannabis
is growing into a massive global industry but even as it progresses, there
remains a commitment to its origins and roots.
