Companies That Destigmatize Cannabis

Over the years, several cannabis companies have similarly destigmatized cannabis by launching medical marijuana platforms.

Tilray Brands, Inc.'s TLRY Tilray Medical launched a cannabis education platform, WeCare-MedicalCannabis in 2022, dedicated to providing resources and educating healthcare practitioners and patients about medical cannabis.

The platform provides science and research-based cannabis content to healthcare professionals, caregivers, and patients to help them make informed decisions about medicinal cannabis and assist them along their path to discovering how medicinal cannabis can support daily wellness and health.

Avicanna Inc. AVCNF followed suit and launched an all-new medical cannabis care platform, MyMedi.ca. in Canada, a year later, upon closing the previously announced acquisition of the Medical Cannabis by Shopper's Business from Shoppers Drug Mart.

Tyler Technologies, Inc. TYL has been in partnership with the state of Mississippi for years, under which Tyler's NIC Licensing Solution – the government licensing platform – is designed specifically for the cannabis industry.

The comprehensive licensing platform features patient/caregiver registration, practitioner registration, agent (employee) credentialing, and business licensing across all business types.

The Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference is returning to Florida, in a new venue in Hollywood, on April 16 and 17, 2024. The two-day event at The Diplomat Beach Resort will be a chance for entrepreneurs, both large and small, to network, learn and grow. Renowned for its trendsetting abilities and influence on the future of cannabis, mark your calendars – this conference is the go-to event of the year for the cannabis world.
