According to the Medical Marijuana, Inc., the estimated size of the legal marijuana industry in the U.S. is US$ 7.1
billion in 2016. This is an increase of 25% Y-o-Y. As of 2016, 28 states in the U.S. have legalized marijuana for

accelerated pace of legalization of cannabis (marijuana) in the U.S. has attracted the attention of global investors in
the medicinal cannabis market. However, lack of formulation of a comprehensive law pertaining to medicinal
marijuana in some states inhibits patient access to the drug.

users. Such a large user base makes it highly lucrative taxable opportunity, which is influencing various
governments worldwide to initiate studies regarding legalization of the drug for medicinal use. The National Institute

compliance is a key factor that influences cost, quality, and safety of cannabis (marijuana) medicines, as well as the
