Global Hemp Group Inc C.GHG

Alternate Symbol(s):  GBHPF

Global Hemp Group Inc. is a Canada-based company. The Company is focused on two business segments: Industrial Hemp and Health & Wellness (Biopharma). The Industrial Hemp segment primary focus lies in the environmental uses of hemp for construction and hemp for sustainable bio-energy sources, both contributing to a carbon-negative footprint. It is also focused on aligning with its hemp agro-industrial zone (HAIZ) strategy to achieve a carbon-negative footprint. Its principal feature of the HAIZ concept is the proximity of the industrial plant to the supply of raw materials and final markets. The Health and Wellness segment is focused on the acquisition of exclusive licensing of patents and intellectual property (IP). It acquired exclusive rights to key patents and IP of Apollon Formularies plc., a UK-based international pharmaceutical company whose formulations and patents specialize in developing cancer treatments from natural biologics, including cannabinoids and functional mushrooms.

GHG newsGlobal Hemp Group Welcomes Prof. Victor Castao, PH.D. As A Key Scientific Advisor and Head of The Company's Newly Created R&D Division VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2020 /GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. ("GHG" or the "Company") (CSE:GHG / OTC PINK:GBHPF / FRANKFURT:GHG)is pleased to announce that Prof. Victor Castao, Ph.D. has joined the Company's Advisory Board and has been appointed as the Head of Global Hemp's newly created Research and Development Division. Prof. Vctor M. Castao, Ph.D. is a recognized international leader in several areas of applied science and technology. He has lectured across multiple disciplinary schools in Mexico and was the founding Director of the Center for Applied Physics and Advanced Technology at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) in Juriquilla, Quertaro, Mexico. He has published extensively, including 5 books and 25 patents and has received over 14,500 citations in the last few years. He is one of the most cited Latin-American scientists in his area. He is an engineer and scientist who dares to cross disciplinary boundaries. For additional information on Prof. Castao, please visit Global Hemp's website (https://www.globalhempgroup.com/leadership-team). Prof. Castao is best known for his work in materials science and biomedicine, where he invented a very extensive line of new materials and technologies for various applications. As an Advisor to Global Hemp, Prof. Castao will head up the Company's Research and Development Division. There are three immediate areas of interest that Prof. Castao and his team will actively be focused on to develop Intellectual Property that can be patented and implemented in the hemp and/or building industry, and in particular at Company's newly announced Colorado Hemp Agro-Industrial Zone.(see news release of September 16, 2020). GLOBAL HEMP'S R&D DIVISION WILL INITIALLY FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING : Environmentally-Friendly Construction Materials -Prof. Castao and his team has over 30 years of experience in the development of novel construction materials from natural sources, particularly agricultural waste and/or byproducts, including many fiber-containing plants. The development underway aims to produce materials that could efficiently replace Medium Density Fibreboard (made from wood) with improved mechanical, thermal and environmental characteristics. In particular, the heat and cold insulation, for extreme weather conditions, are competitive advantages in terms of cost/benefit relationship. Nanofertilizers -Nanofertilizers are emerging as a promising alternative to chemical fertilizers in agriculture. Fertilizers are normally made from potash or from ammonia, which are important petrochemical products. However, the use of these chemicals has environmental consequences that are being discussed by the experts. The use of nanotechnology, including graphene and metal oxide nanoparticles, in which the team has over 30 years of experience, opens up a ground breaking areas of R&D, in which the nanostructures allow an increase of up to 20% in plant yield, while diminishing, by orders of magnitude the use of traditional chemicals, having a positive impact on the environment and the cost of farming. Enhanced Extraction from Hemp -One of the main properties of hemp is its content of cannabinoids. Normally the extraction is carried out by either solvent or CO2. Prof. Castao and his team have experience in extraction of essential oils of various plants by using enzymes and microfauna, which represent a truly innovative and green approach to this industry. Curt Huber, President of Global Hemp stated, "Prof. Castao and his team bring an amazing wealth of experience in different disciplines to Global Hemp's R&D Division. I am confident that they will not only develop technology that we will be able to utilize at our projects but will also be able to market to the industry. We look forward to working with Prof. Castao and his team".
