We have been working with Medicine Man Technologies throughout the years and they have lived up to their reputation for being a first mover and strategic leader. Consequently, making this deal was easier in many respects because of the positive business experiences both sides have had with one another over the years. By operating under a single unified umbrella, we can all recognize business efficiencies and synergies to help create the leading cannabis company in the Rocky Mountain region.”
