Hemp 101 Lance Kreck

Part 1 of 2 with Abhishek Mohan of Hempstreet. 

When you think of India, hemp, cannabis and global healthcare probably aren't the first things that come to mind for most people. But that's just what is going on across the pond with our ally in the east and little did we know that the status of the Hemp Industry in India is groundbreaking and about to take the industry by storm and Hempstreet is doing just that. 

This episode was recorded months ago during the lockdowns across the globe and we finally have a chance to get Abhishek Mohan published on the show and hear about the preparations he's been working on these last months for the VERY clear runway of HempStreet.

Hempstreet is India's first research to retail venture in the ayurvedic cannabis sector. We are working in conjunction with top notch scientists to conduct r&d around safe medication utilizing cannabis to be provided via our network of over 60,000 medical practitioners and 220 clinics around India. We strive to bring an effective and responsible usage of cannabis, especially on the pain relief front, to our potential patient base of over 35 million individuals. Being the first player with such scale off the bat, we have voluntarily taken on the responsibility of defining industry standards in this sunrise sector, be it world class research, supply chain tracking or the responsible and regulated formulation and dispensing of cannabis based medication.

Enjoy!!
