Mr. Iannapollo is an expert on substance abuse programs with more than 20 years of experience in the oil and gas industry, working for Fortune 50 companies. Mr. Iannapollo has extensive experience with supplier, employer and DOT compliance policies and strategies. He also brings deep business acumen regarding operations and supply chain best practices. Mr. Iannapollo will advise Cannabix on global substance abuse programs in a range of industries. Mr. Iannapollo is a member of the Substance Abuse Program Administrators Association, the Drug and Alcohol Testing Industry Association, as well as a speaker and regular contributor to the International Forum for Drug and Alcohol Testing. Kal Malhi, president of Cannabix Technologies, stated: "We are very pleased to have Rocco Iannapollo join our team of advisers as Cannabix develops relationships with law enforcement agencies, employers and other industry stakeholders. It is evident from our discussions with prosecutors and law enforcement personnel that breath testing for drugs would be a preferred choice for testing in comparison to other collection methods. For example, we know that THC can be detected for up to 48 hours in oral fluid, meaning that its detection may not coincide with impairment. With this being the case, there is tremendous interest in breath-testing technology to deliver a more accurate, non-invasive solution for law enforcement to detect marijuana impairment." Cannabix recently met with state officials in Denver to introduce its Cannabix marijuana breathalyzer. The company has been urged to register with the state's request-for-proposal website for potential RFPs regarding marijuana detection at roadside. We seek Safe Harbor.
