Subsidiary to Focus on Investing in the Ever-Emerging Cannabis Sector
TORONTO, Sept. 27, 2018 /CNW/ - Cannvas MedTech Inc.
("Cannvas" or the "Company") (CSE: MTEC) (Frankfurt: 3CM), a leading business technology
company in the cannabis space, is pleased to announce the formation of Cannvas Cannabis Acquisitions Corp., a wholly-owned
subsidiary with a focus on investment and acquisition in the expanding global cannabis sector.
"The North American cannabis market has emerged as an economic force and there are many investment opportunities that support
this important sector," said Steve Loutskou, Chief Operating Officer, Global Markets, Cannvas
MedTech Inc. "With the legalization of cannabis only weeks away, we are positioning our Company to leverage our broad network and
extensive knowledge of the sector to take action when opportunities present themselves. Technology is the most obvious business
where we will focus our attention, but because ancillary businesses and verticals are growing at unprecedented rates there are
numerous opportunities that look interesting."
Cannvas Cannabis Acquisitions seeks to complement Cannvas' current product offering through continuous development, strategic
investments and acquisitions in the cannabis sector. Related companies may include, but are not limited to:
- Technology
- Marketing and design
- Packaging
- Food and nutraceuticals
- Regulation and enforcement
- New product development
- Cultivation related equipment
- Gear and paraphernalia
- Retail stores & dispensaries
- Testing labs
Cannabis research sources calculate legal pot sales in North America climbed approximately
33% in 2017 to almost $10 billion, and project annual sales will grow to $25
billion by 2021. In a 2017 study, Deloitte estimates the size of the ancillary cannabis market to be approximately 2.5
times the size of the actual cannabis cultivation market.
