Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good
morning and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com “potcasts”, looking
at cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and
experts.
In
today’s podcast I focus on a few early announcements from some interesting
companies.
But first, the Texas House gave preliminary approval Monday to a bill that would reduce
the penalties for low-level possession of marijuana.
However, after the House grants final approval for the bill, it
will head to the Senate, where presiding officer Lt. Gov.
Dan
Patrick has expressed opposition to the idea of loosening marijuana
possession penalties.
The lower chamber voted 98-43 in favor of
House
Bill 63 by state Rep. Joe Moody, D-El Paso, after he changed
it on the chamber floor from a decriminalization measure to one that reduces
the penalties for possession. The bill lowers possession of 1 ounce or less
from a Class B to a
Class
C misdemeanor, which is the same classification as a traffic ticket.
Khiron Life Sciences Corp. (TSXV:
KHRN), (OTCQB:
KHRNF), announced
today that it has signed a
distribution agreements for its Kuida® cosmeceutical brand with Cafam, a
leading Colombian drugstore chain. This agreement further expands the brands
points of sales In combination with the previous announced distribution
arrangements this agreement further expands the brands retail and e-commerce
points of sales in Colombia.
Cafam is a large Colombian
conglomerate that is diversified across multiple business lines, with
operations built over a 40-year history. Cafam operates 270 stores across 63
different markets in Colombia, generating annual revenue of USD $561M. The
Company's agreement with the drugstore division of Cafam, represents an initial
49 point of sale locations for Kuida®, and an agreement to expand this
distribution to a total of 150 stores in the first six months of roll-out of
the agreement.
The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX:
TGOD) (OTC:
TGODF) announced
that its Kelowna-based extraction processing services
provider, Valens GroWorks Corp., has obtained its organic certification from
Pro-Cert Organic Systems Ltd.
"TGOD has been committed to organic
since day one. Working with service providers who embrace organic as much as we
do is paramount. I want to congratulate
the team at Valens for obtaining their organic certification," commented
Brian Athaide, CEO of TGOD. "We look forward to delivering certified
organic oils of the highest standards to our patients and customers."
TGOD collaborated with Valens to
facilitate the organic certification of their organic processing methodologies.
As announced on March 11th, as part of its agreement with Valens,
TGOD will have exclusive access to their services for certified organic
extraction processing for a period of one year.
NexTech AR Solutions (OTCQB:
NEXCF) (CSE:
NTAR) today
announced the launch of sentiment analysis
capabilities within its 'Try-It-On' augmented reality (AR) experience for
online retail, the second in a series of sentiment-based technology solutions
being developed for its patent pending web-enabled AR eCommerce platform and
site optimization.
This latest feature is an integration of
computer vision technology programmed to analyze shoppers' sentiment in real
time as they 'try on' different products. Using Microsoft Azure, the technology
is able to live sample shoppers' facial expressions every few seconds and will
make recommendations through on-screen prompts based on a positive or negative
reaction. Currently, the prototype of prompts is set on 'smiling', so when a
potential customer smiles when 'trying on' an item, the technology will
recognize that sentiment and display an on-screen prompt to urge the shopper to
add the item to their cart.
Ovation Science Inc. (CSE:
OVAT), a topical and
transdermal cannabis product development company with a patented skin delivery
technology and backed by over twenty years of research and development, today
announced it has received the
results of its successful completion of independent testing of its broad
spectrum CBD sunscreen to be sold under its recently announced ARLO Beauty
brand of skincare and anti-aging products.
There are two very
important claims that a sunscreen can make: broad spectrum and water
resistance. The SPF value of a sunscreen refers to protection from UVB rays. A
sunscreen however that is "broad spectrum" means the sunscreen
provides protection from both UVB as well as UVA rays; protecting the skin from
ultraviolet rays that penetrate deeper, go through glass and clouds and can
cause more severe skin damage. Only
sunscreens with a critical wavelength above 370 nm are allowed to make the
claim that they provide UVA protection. Ovation's ARLO Beauty sunscreen
surpasses this criterion, allowing it to be labeled as having "broad
spectrum" UVA and UVB protection. In addition, this independent testing
also validated that Ovation's sunscreen achieved the highest level of water
resistance allowed; 80 minutes.
