Our recent expansion into Lithuania’s blockchain community is reflective of our continued commitment to implement real technology based solutions related to medical cannabis. We believe that the value of the partnership with SciCann will be extremely beneficial to future development projects with licensed producers, canna product developers and insurers, greatly adding to our revenue objectives.”
