By segment, the medical cannabis market was worth $4.7 billion in 2016 and is expected to grow to $13.3 billion by 2025. Sales of recreational cannabis during the same time period are expected to grow at a 21 percent CAGR, from $1.9 billion to $10.9 billion.

Last week Forbes reported that a bipartisan pair of California lawmakers have announced a bill which would drop the state excise tax on cannabis to from 15% to 11% for a period of three years. Beau Whitney, a senior economist at data analytics for New Frontier Data, which conducted an analysis of the bill, explained to Leafly that, "by lowering the excise tax and postponing the cultivation tax, it will lower the overall price for consumers at the register, which will also reduce the differential between illicit and legal prices… Reducing this gap is critical to making the legal market more competitive against the illicit market and more attractive for consumers."
Snipp Interactive Inc. (OTCQB: SNIPF) is also listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker (TSX-V: SPN). Just announced BREAKING NEWS that, "it has received broad interest in the Company's solutions and its recently launched Cannabis Marketing Resource Center ("CMRC"), from Avana Canada Inc. ("Avana"). As a late-stage applicant to produce, process and market cannabis under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR), Avana has had the opportunity to meet and learn from industry trailblazers around the globe. With this valuable know-how, they have developed processes for growing premium, consistent, pesticide-free product. To learn more visit http://www.avana.ca .
Marketed and sold under the Avana brand, their premium cannabis flowers and oils will be produced in a 27,000 sq. ft. facility in St. Thomas, Ontario (on target for construction completion in March), with a 720,000 sq. ft. expansion facility scheduled to begin construction this summer.

"With our investments from seed to sale, it is important for us to have access not only to resources such as those that are being provided through Snipp's Cannabis Marketing Resource Center, but also to have access to the capabilities of future partners, like Snipp that can advise on and implement tried and tested solutions that will be critical for driving competitive advantage. This will allow us to focus on our core business strengths and enable faster scalability," said Zubin Jasavala, President and CEO of Avana.
"We are energized by the interest received in our CMRC. Clearly there is a need that is currently unmet in the cannabis industry for marketing solutions that can be leveraged across the industry ecosystem and we hope to be the go-to resource that fills that need. Avana is a great example of a privately owned forward looking company that intends to run a vertically integrated business that is already thinking through the finer points of their future business and operating model. With the successes they have already had I am sure that our relationship is only just beginning today and will evolve along with their business needs," said Atul Sabharwal, CEO of Snipp.
The goal of the CMRC is to help Cannabis marketers hit the ground running by leveraging our deep expertise and the flexible technology platforms we have engineered for highly-regulated industries, which have unique requirements compared to other consumer-oriented segments. This resource center is designed to help cannabis-related companies launch sophisticated solutions that are also legally-compliant, a very important aspect for all firms in the space. Interested cannabis companies can sign up and qualify via a simple application process that can be accessed at http://www.snipp.com/CMRC .

The Company operates a 26,000 sq. ft. indoor facility in Aylmer, Ontario and is awaiting its second-site cultivation license for its 610,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art greenhouse in Strathroy, Ontario. WeedMD is focused on providing medical cannabis to the seniors' market in Canada through its proprietary program.
WeedMD and Snipp are entering into an agreement where WeedMD will use Snipp as its technology vendor of record to design and deploy custom marketing solutions for direct sales, retail sales, referral/sourcing programs, distributor programs and other initiatives.

"Given their deep experience in regulated industries, we're looking forward to working with them to help launch sophisticated, compliant and responsible campaigns to increase market awareness along with acquisition and retention of medical patients, and eventually for both retailers and consumers as the adult use market emerges."
"We are extremely excited to announce our first client in the cannabis space. Companies like WeedMD that make the initial investments today in the infrastructure and programs required to succeed in an increasingly competitive market are better positioned to gain and retain market share," said Atul Sabharwal, CEO of Snipp. "The cannabis market was valued at $14.3 billion in 2016 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 21.1% between 2017 to 2024, while reaching a value of $63.5 billion by 2024. As we did in the alcohol and pharma space, we are positioning ourselves to be the leading technology solutions provider for this emerging market. We believe our solutions are industry-leading given their proven security, scalability and flexibility to adapt not only to the myriad regulatory frameworks in place, but for future regulations that will affect the industry as it matures. Given our rich history and experience with multiple clients in the alcohol and pharma industries, we have no doubt that we are best positioned to help advance and accelerate the unique marketing objectives for any company in the cannabis space from seed to sale and beyond."
"We also welcome WeedMD to our CMRC. Since the launch of the CMRC we have been receiving interest from leading Cannabis companies and we look forward to sharing more about our solutions and services."
