The proposed collaboration is expected to:

  • Assess the compatibility of the RYAH Smart Patch delivery and monitoring device, software, and data platform with Ei.Ventures’ proprietary psychedelic formulations
  • Further Ei.Ventures’ research and development strategy, accelerating use testing on controlled delivery and monitoring of psychoactive compounds for mental wellness treatments
  • Position the companies toward a commercial licensing arrangement to deliver psychedelic therapies, in anticipation of governmentally approved treatment options for mental healthcare

 

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 15, 2021 / RYAH Group, Inc. (CSE:RYAH) (“RYAH” or the “Company“) announced today that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “Letter of Intent“) with Emotional Intelligence Ventures (“Ei.Ventures“), a leading psychedelic formulation and therapeutic research company. The collaboration is aimed at developing new delivery solutions for Ei.Ventures’ psychoactive compounds using RYAH’s Smart devices and data analytics, with the goal of advancing patient care to further address the current global mental health crisis.

 

The executed Letter of Intent initiates a collaboration that is anticipated to culminate into the parties negotiating and finalizing certain definitive research and development (R&D), licensing, and distribution agreements between the parties (the “Definitive Agreements“). The Definitive Agreements, if entered into, are expected to provide for RYAH’s licensing of certain intellectual property relating to its Smart Patch device and data analytics to Ei.Ventures for, among other things, R&D and potential commercialization, by Ei.Ventures, of certain psychedelic mushroom formulations in conjunction with RYAH’s Smart Patch hardware, software, and patient session analytics. It is anticipated the terms of any such licensing and R&D agreements, including any potential hardware and software customizations, will be agreed upon in the Definitive Agreements.

 

“This marks a new era for RYAH Group, as we look to expand our non-medicine touching technologies and treatments to support industry partners engaged in the psychedelics markets, in addition to medical cannabis,” said Gregory Wagner, CEO of RYAH. “Our cutting-edge devices and data analytics are designed to work with a wide range of plant-based medicines, making it a logical next step for the Company to partner with Ei.Ventures, which is a leader in psychedelic research, formulation and mental healthcare.”

 

David Nikzad, CEO of Ei.Ventures, notes, “We are committed to developing next-generation solutions for psychedelic therapy emphasizing technology platforms capable of delivering and monitoring the use of psychedelic drugs for treating mental illness. Ei.Ventures is working to transform how mental illness is treated and improve the quality of life for those who struggle with their mental health. The RYAH platform offers both technology and data platforms capable of delivering our advanced formulations and collecting relevant clinical data about the use and effectiveness of our transdermal product.”

 

The global psychedelic market is poised to benefit from the high prevalence of mental health diseases and conditions that are on the rise, and a growing pool of patients with unmet treatment needs. Fairfield Market Research indicates that the global psychedelic drugs market revenue is anticipated to rise at a pace of 14.5% CAGR during the period, as the market reaches US$6330.0 million by 2026 from US$3210.0 million in 2021.

 

Forrester estimated consumers will make around 480 million virtual visits for healthcare in 2020, with almost 38% for mental healthcare. Demand for virtual mental healthcare such as therapy and counselling is estimated to total 138 million visits by the end of 2021.
