Jay-Z To Speak At Today's KCSA Strategic Communications Cannabis Investor Conference

This was a great week for cannabis stocks, with all major U.S.-traded ETFs posting double-digit gains.
Over the five trading days of the week:
<ul>
<li>The ETFMG Alternative Harvest ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mj#NYSE">MJ</a>): gained almost 12%</li>
<li>The AdvisorShares Pure Cannabis ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/yolo#NYSE">YOLO</a>): was up 13.3%</li>
<li>The Cannabis ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/thcx#NYSE">THCX</a>): rose 18%</li>
<li>The Amplify Seymour Cannabis ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cnbs#NYSE">CNBS</a>): closed the week up more than 15%</li>

</ul>
The vice presidential debate and the passing of legislation to regulate adult-use cannabis in Vermont were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/20/10/17836422/cannabis-stocks-soar-on-heels-of-vp-debate-vermont-bill-passing">key drivers</a> of this week&rsquo;s activity. Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, who leads President Donald Trump handily in many polls, has consistently said he is in favor of more cannabis research before he endorses federal legalization. And Senator Kamala Harris has been more progressive on the cannabis issue and even sponsored the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act (MORE), which would deschedule cannabis from the Controlled Substance Act and expunge criminal convictions related to federal cannabis offenses.
During Wednesday&rsquo;s debate, Harris said Biden&rsquo;s administration would &ldquo;decriminalize marijuana&rdquo; and &ldquo;expunge the records&quot; of those who have been convicted.
Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Pablo Zuanic expects Democrats&nbsp;&quot;to have a more ambitious agenda regarding MJ than just decriminalization/descheduling,&nbsp;and continue to believe the focus will be on MORE, in part because the bill&rsquo;s lead sponsor is Sen Harris.&quot;

He also discussed the endocannabinoid system and the effects of endogenous cannabinoids such as anandamide and 2-arachadonylglycerol (2-AG) on neuroprotection, osteoporosis, and addiction. He welcomed student questions about his presentation, life, and research.
&ldquo;Dr. Mechoulam, one of the world&rsquo;s preeminent cannabis researchers, gave our students historical perspective; a glimpse into the cutting-edge cannabinoid research that is currently ongoing; and his thoughts on the future of cannabis research,&quot; said program director Leah Sera. &quot;Students were thrilled and grateful for the opportunity to learn from and interact with such an influential and accomplished individual in their chosen field.&quot;

Investors across the country are preparing to consider and adjust their investments in the cannabis space, following announcements they hear at the <a href="http://weedstockconference.com/">WeedStock </a>conference, taking place from June 29 to July 1 in Denver.

	One of the biggest aspects many investors are anticipating is the discussion of new offerings. As the marijuana industry rapidly develops, almost every firm is launching new products and services. In many cases, those details will be given for the first time at WeedStock, along with first opportunities for executives to answer investor questions.

	For example, Vapor Group (OTC: VPOR) will be introducing its new line of high-end vaporizers. According to company COO Yaniv Nahon, &ldquo;this conference is important to us because it gives us the opportunity to showcase our new technologies.&rdquo;

	Policy change will be another hot topic at the conference. Businesses will discuss not only how changes in legislation around the world will affect their business, but also what impact Colorado&rsquo;s legalization has on the rest of country.

	Entrepreneurs in the cannabis space will discuss the steps it takes to launch a new business. Topics will range from launching the company to securing financing to working with the SEC. The value of this coverage is two-fold: entrepreneurs will better understand operations in the space, and investors will have an idea of what it takes for competitors of the publicly-traded companies they own to launch.

	As scheduled keynote speaker and cannabis investor Alan Brochstein commented, &ldquo;We are still in the early stages of an incredible transformation of this industry. This first-of-its-kind conference will be a chance for those interested in learning about potential opportunities to hear from industry experts, as well as the leaders of a second wave of publicly-traded companies and private companies that are seeking to capitalize on the changes ahead.&quot; Over 1,600 investors depend on Brochstein&rsquo;s analysis of the cannabis industry ,as members of the<a href="http://marketfy.com/product/420investor/"> 420 Investor</a>.

Cannabis Investors Preparing For Industry Data From WeedStock 

Tauriga Sciences (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/taug#OTC">TAUG</a>) announced Tuesday that the company will be presenting at the <a href="http://weedstockconference.com/index.html">first annual WeedStock</a> conference.

	Tauriga is reinventing itself as a leader in the marijuana sector, with CEO Dr. Stella Sung at the helm. The company is no longer dependent on a single license, but is creating a diversified portfolio of assets -- including licensing agreements and acquisitions of companies in the life science technology industry.

	The company put themselves in the center of the marijuana space with the acquisition of Honeywood earlier in 2014. Honeywood makes cannabis oil infused topical creams to alleviate pain, while providing no psychoactive effects.

	Related:&nbsp;<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/news/14/04/4472357/tauriga-sciences-is-poised-to-establish-itself-in-the-marijuana-industry-part-one" style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 20px;">Tauriga Sciences Is Poised To Establish itself In The Marijuana Industry</a>

	Sung commented on the benefit that the creams can provide the elderly population, who, &ldquo;are already taking a lot of oral medications and don&rsquo;t want to take any more due to the fear of sides effects from drug-drug interactions, but do suffer from pain and discomfort.&rdquo;

	Tauriga plans to emphasize dispensaries for distribution, but doesn&rsquo;t want to limit itself from other distribution channels.

	Tauriga recently brought Dr. Lawrence May, MD, onto the team. Prior to his engagement with Tauriga, May served as the executive vice president for medical and scientific affairs at Herbalife. Sung commented, &ldquo;I think his background is perfect for developing supplements related to cannabis effects [including] memory and cognitive issues, appetite, and depression.&rdquo;

	Changing product offerings is not all Tauriga is doing to fuel a turnaround. Because the company is now able to acquire capital at a lower cost, Tauriga has been replacing past debts. $800,000 was raised in a recent private placement, while over $700,000 of older convertible notes were paid off.

	Tauriga Sciences will be presenting its opportunities at 10:00 a.m. on July 1 at the exclusive <a href="http://weedstockconference.com/index.html">WeedStock conference</a>.

Tauriga To Discuss Tremendous Entry In The Cannabis Space At WeedStock Conference

Rising From The Ashes 

	Tauriga’s future definitely seems more certain than it did a year ago, when the company was “struggling to stay alive.”

	“We’ve turned a bit of a corner, but I am nowhere near the point to where I think we need to, or should, declare victory…but the stock is trading better, and I think the fundamentals of our business are better. Rebuilding with a new business model is never really easy, but we are in a better position to attract capital at a lower cost.” 

	With the opportunity to obtain cheaper funding on the horizon, Tauriga has actively been retiring past debts. 

	Just in the last month, the company has completed an <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tauriga-sciences-inc-completes-800-101500107.html">$800,000 USD equity private placement,</a> and has fully repaid and retired convertible notes worth <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tauriga-sciences-inc-fully-repays-154052287.html">$157,500</a> and <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tauriga-sciences-inc-fully-retires-070500823.html">$550,000</a> respectively.  

	“I have great aspirations to build Tauriga into a leading company, that people who put their faith and trust in now will benefit from...whether that means alleviating pain, or having cleaner water at a cheaper cost, this is what we’d like to do.”

Interview

Tauriga Sciences Is Poised To Establish Themselves In The Marijuana Space (Part Two)  

After an “unusual series of problems,” Tauriga Sciences (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/taug#OTC">TAUG</a>) was able to “reinvent themselves” with the help of newly-appointed CEO Dr. Stella Sung.

	When an exclusive license agreement went wrong, Immunovative Inc. (Tauriga’s predecessor company) had a very uncertain future.

	Immunovative filed a lawsuit against Immunovative Therapies Ltd. regarding the termination of their exclusive license agreement, but after settling outside of court, Immunovative only received a nine percent equity stake in the Israeli firm.

	Without that exclusive license, which was the company’s key asset,I mmunovative was left to “rise from the ashes.” Thus,Tauriga was born.

	<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/14/04/4454707/the-future-of-marijuana-policy-the-east">Related: The Future of Marijuana Policy: The East</a>

	The current company exists with the goal of creating a diversified portfolio of assets, that include licensing agreements and acquisitions of companies that utilize life science technology.

	According to Dr.Sung, the company has and will continue, to pursue company acquisitions that have products with a “clear path to commercialization,” and have to chance to compete in a market with reduced FDA regulatory risks. That is where marijuana comes into play.

	Traditionally, bio-therapeutics have vast regulatory risks, which is why Dr.Sung wants to “apply interesting life science technology to markets with huge applicability,” while avoiding the need for FDA approval.

	Marijuana-based products are not yet regulated by the FDA, with makes cannabis the ideal component for Sung and the Tauriga team.

	Honeywell LLC Acquisition

	On March 11th, 2014, Tauriga announced the acquisition of California’s leading manufacturer of topical medicinal cannabis products, Honeywood LLC. This acquisition launched Tauriga into the marijuana space, using Honeywood’s Doc Green’s brand of topical creams as an entry point to the canna-business space. 

	Doc Green’s produces cannabis oil infused creams that are designed to alleviate pain while providing no psychoactive effects. Doc Green creams were the first professionally packaged and widely distributed cannabis product on the California market, and are found in hundreds of dispensaries. 

	Dr. Sung told Benzinga her comments are not medical claims, but noted that “it has been suggested that cannabis, and this specific formulation, really interacts with the CB2 receptors associated with pain and inflammation, and we have a lot of testimonials where people say it helped them.”

	Doc Green’s target audience is the elderly population, as many “are already taking a lot of oral medications and don’t want to take any more due to the fear of sides effects from drug-drug interactions, but do suffer from pain and discomfort. “

	Dr. Sung also stressed the importance of cost efficiency, noting that “other prescription analgesic topical creams are not covered under Medicare Part D, so they are super expensive” (a <a href="http://docgreens.heroku.com/products/HealingCream-4oz-Vanilla-bottle">4 ounce bottle of Vanilla Scented Doc Greens cream</a> is $20.00).

	Further development in the cannabis space for Tauriga seems evident, but Dr.Sung is not sure if they will expand under the Doc Green’s brand, or if they will make further acquisitions. 

	“We are committed to our current legitimate cannabis business as an entry point," she said, "and we believe that cannabis has a lot of benefits. Overall, the cannabis related area is very, very promising.”

	Dr. Lawrence A. May MD <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tauriga-sciences-inc-appoints-dr-122500885.html">joined the Tauriga team in April of 2013</a>, and brings a wealth of experience in the life science space. Dr. May served as the executive vice president for medical and scientific affairs for Herbalife international, and Dr.Sung is confident he will be a huge contributor to future cannabis related projects. 

	“ I think his background is perfect for developing supplements related to cannabis effects [including] memory and cognitive issues, appetite, and depression,” she said.

	Tauriga hopes to develop a better presence by placing their products in dispensaries, but does not want to limit themselves, and will use other distribution channels as well.
