COMPANY HIGHLIGHTS
STRATEGIC STEPS TO CREATE PROMINENT INDUSTRY POSITIONING
One of the industry’s most qualified management teams in life sciences, cannabis cultivation & large scale agri-business.. Management & board members have raised ~$500m for development-stage companies and run clinical trials with aggregate budgets exceeding $1B. Executive Chairman is former CEO of Inovio; CEO has 20+ years in life sciences; CFO has 20+ years in finance and accounting.
Partnership with Village Farms, called Pure Sunfarms, adds decades of large scale greenhouse growing experience and strategically positions Emerald for rapid production capacity expansion in anticipation of the future adult-use market. Reduces execution risk for Emerald to implement and operate large-scale growing and provides significant quantity of quality inputs for extraction and downstream product development. Emerald has preferred access to Sunfarms’ production.
Focus on producing high quality cannabinoid products with well-characterized, consistent attributes using cultivation and GMP compliant extraction and processing to meet pharmaceutical standards.
Opportunity to deliver proprietary medical quality cannabinoid products with low or no psychoactive effects will open the door to new consumers seeking alternative, non-addictive approaches to insomnia, pain, and other conditions with unmet needs. Future initiatives include generating clinical evidence of utility with unique formulated products.
