  • Announced that the company has submitted applications to the Apple and Google Play stores in order to launch its latest mobile application, Uppy Cannabis Journal
  • Uppy Cannabis Journal is the first artificial intelligence (“AI”) driven medical cannabis app, which is designed to collect direct feedback on cannabis strains and over time provide strain and cannabis hardware recommendations

VANCOUVER, July 19, 2018 – Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (TSXV: N) (FRANKFURT: M5BQ) (OTCMKTS: NXTTF) is pleased to announce that the company has submitted applications to the Apple and Google Play stores in order to launch its latest mobile application, Uppy Cannabis Journal. Uppy Cannabis Journal is the first artificial intelligence (“AI”) driven medical cannabis app, which is designed to collect direct feedback on cannabis strains and over time provide strain and cannabis hardware recommendations. Namaste has implemented its AI technology through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Findify AB (“Findify” or “Findify.io”) and has fed over 2 million pieces of unique data to the platform which forms the base on which the algorithm will evolve and adapt itself to better understand the effects of cannabis strains in relation to treatment of many symptoms.

Through Uppy Cannabis Journal, Namaste’s customers and medical cannabis patients will have the access to journal their experiences using various strains of cannabis to treat their symptoms. The data collected over time will allow the algorithm to characterize the way different strains of cannabis benefit different people suffering from different symptoms. The goal of the Uppy Cannabis Journal is to develop a shopping experience whereby patients are provided with the best possible strain recommendations personalized for their needs, based on factual data collected through Namaste’s network of e-commerce sites, combined with user-feedback and AI technology.

Namaste will leverage its database of over 1.5 million consumers on a global scale to collect as much patient and strain data as possible. The implementation of AI technology in strain recommendations opens the door to a deeper level of understanding in how cannabis and different strain profiles treat medical symptoms. Namaste is well-positioned with its expansive international database of cannabis consumers to develop the Uppy Cannabis Journal app to a platform that ultimately will serve to benefit cannabis patients on a global scale. Once the app is approved by Apple and Google, Namaste will begin a marketing program to drive traffic from its own sites to Uppy Cannabis Journal and to attract new users through various digital marketing strategies.

The Company remains focused on developing innovative technologies like Uppy Cannabis Journal and NamasteMD, that provide value to Namaste and its shareholders but also bring great value to the industry, the Company’s peers and patients across the globe. Namaste is keen to differentiate itself in an industry focused on cultivation, as a leader in cannabis technology. Uppy Cannabis Journal provides Namaste with a tool to leverage its e-commerce platform to collect valuable data. Furthermore, the integration of Findify’s AI technology with Uppy Cannabis Journal is a ground-breaking event that will fuel a deeper level of understanding for cannabis patients.

Real-world applications of AI are best suited for implementation in e-commerce, healthcare and logistics environments. With Namaste’s large base of online traffic, the Company can collect substantial data in relation to cannabis patients and strains that will be leveraged using the most innovative AI technology in the market. Namaste will be the first company to dive deep into this exciting area of the industry and in enhancing the user experience for medical patients by providing more relevant recommendations based on the specific needs of individual patient’s. The Company will be able to immediately monetize the data collected by integrating Uppy Cannabis Journal with its e-commerce platform and its upcoming medical cannabis “sales-only” license through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary and Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes (“ACMPR”) applicant, Cannmart Inc.

Management Commentary

Chad Agate, CTO of Namaste comments; “The coming launch of Uppy Cannabis Journal represents the next phase of our integration of the Findify AI team into the Namaste platform core – applying machine learning models to help our users have the best cannabis experience in the world. I’m very proud of our world-class team of engineers and designers. We are spending time looking at how we are using technology today during interactions with our customers and focused on how the value of that moment could be increased. For the dedicated Namaste team, machine learning and AI is not about providing novel tools anymore, it is about creating a new type of organization. Our role model is Amazon, which has been able to apply its formula of automation, innovation and data-driven everything to solve seemingly unrelated business issues.”

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste comments; “This is a very exciting moment for Namaste. Our acquisition of Findify will now show true value to the cannabis industry. Imagine having a platform which has been developed with millions of data points and that uses machine learning algorithms to gain a better understanding of the complex relationships between cannabis strain profiles and treating patient symptoms. We believe that that the Uppy platform will provide better strain recommendations for patients based on actual data that we can collect and analyze using some of the most advanced AI technology on the market today. Each cannabis strain has its own unique profile of cannabinoids and terpenes which define the characteristics of the particular strain and how it impacts patients on an individual basis.

Namaste is leading the industry in developing the most valuable technology platforms and in collecting data on a global scale that serves the Company, its consumers, patients and shareholders. I truly believe that this is something we should be proud of as a company and I feel confident Uppy will help better educate patients from across the globe by assisting them in making more informed decisions. We believe our users will find incredible value in this revolutionary educational tool which we will believe is essential in building patient trust and loyalty. Our ability to allow our patients real-time feedback is very exciting, as we once again lead the industry in new initiatives designed with a “patient first mentality” in mind. This was the last step needed in Namaste’s sales funnel and in creating a personalized consumer experience. I’d like to thank our Technology team at Namaste and our incredible CTO Chad Agate who continues to create and innovate incredible technology that will provide long term value to the Company.”

VANCOUVER, July 16, 2018 – Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (TSXV: N) (FRA: M5BQ)(OTCMKTS: NXTTF) is pleased to announce that the Company has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) for a Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”) to repurchase for cancellation up to  25,308,136 common shares of its own capital through the facilities of the Exchange. The NCIB will be in place for a 12-month duration, commencing on July 18th, 2018 and ending July 17th, 2019. Additionally, Namaste is also pleased to announce that the Company will attend and present at Grit Capital Advisory’s upcoming July 25-27th 2018 conference, GritCAMP.

Pursuant to the notice of intention filed with the Exchange, the Corporation intends to purchase for cancellation, through the facilities of the Exchange and at the market price of the Corporation’s common shares (“Common Shares”) at the time of purchase, up to 25,308,136 Common Shares, representing approximately 8.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares and 10% of the Company’s “public float” (as such term is defined in the TSX-V Corporation Finance Manual).

The NCIB will be conducted on behalf of the Company by Canaccord Genuity Inc. (“Cannacord”). The actual number of Common Shares that may be purchased and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by the Corporation and will be made in accordance with the requirements of the Exchange.

The Corporation will enter into a pre-defined plan with Cannacord to allow for the purchase of Common Shares by the Corporation at times when it ordinarily would not be active in the market due to internal trading blackout periods.

Management Commentary

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste comments: – “We believe that the present trading price of the Common Shares of the Namaste is at a significant discount to a what we believe is reflective of the Corporation’s value as a whole.

We’re also very proud to have joined Grit Capital’s GritCAMP conference and I’m very much looking forward to presenting and participating in the event.

This Agreement represents a significant milestone, as Namaste and IcMD collaborate in providing Indigenous communities across Canada with the right to access medical cannabis. This will be accomplished by offering all community members with free consultations, whereby patients have instant access to doctors or nurse practitioners. Namaste and IcMD believe they can help bridge the gap for Indigenous communities across Canada who are suffering from an overwhelming lack of access to quality healthcare services. Through a platform powered by NamasteMD’s technology, IcMD plans to potentially provide healthcare access to over 1.5 million Indigenous peoples, many of whom currently reside in remote or rural areas, and have little to no access to comprehensive clinic services.

This Agreement embodies Namaste and IcMD’s belief that all Indigenous people across Canada, whether in urban environments or rural communities, should have proper access to healthcare practitioners and medical cannabis.  IcMD’s management team is committed to supporting Indigenous communities and believes NamasteMD will serve as a powerful tool to enhance the lives of many members. Both Namaste and IcMD view this partnership as an incredible opportunity to become leaders in the Indigenous medical cannabis and direct healthcare space by providing people with safe and reliable access to healthcare in their hands.

Namaste views this opportunity as potentially one of the most significant initiatives it has embarked on to date. Once deployed, Namaste believes its platform has the ability to have a significant social impact on Indigenous communities across Canada. Namaste and IcMD are also confident this technology has the ability to catch the attention of Indigenous leaders on a global scale once its effects are observed within the Canadian market. This represents a unique opportunity for both parties to come together and work with Indigenous leaders across the country in helping drive social reform.

At a time when political leaders at all levels of government have acknowledged an impending opioid epidemic, it would appear that there is no better time to implement better access to healthcare. By making it easier and more affordable to access doctors and nurse practitioners, it is believed that this will allow Indigenous members, whose communities have been some of the hardest hit, the ability to make more informed choices under the guidance of a trained professional.

The fact that the Indigenous market and its people have consistently been left out of equal access to healthcare is something Namaste and IcMD are extremely excited to change. Starting with nationwide access to medical cannabis and moving forward to health consultations and treatment plans Namaste & IcMD will truly be putting healthcare in the hands of the people.

Namaste’s wholly owned subsidiary, Cannmart Inc. (“Cannmart”) is a late-stage applicant for a medical cannabis “sales-only” license that will serve to provide a diverse selection of cannabis from preferred cultivation partners and will be integrated with IcMD’s platform through NamasteMD upon receipt of its sales license.

IcMD and Namaste are excited to attend and launch IcMD at the Assembly of First Nation’s 39th General Assembly in Vancouver, BC July 23 to 26, 2018. Namaste and IcMD will be highlighted in a booth at the AFN Circle of Trade. The AFN Circle of Trade provides the opportunity to meet, network and showcase products to over 4,500 key decision makers and influencers from a growing market within the First Nations communities across Canada.

The Assembly of First Nations (AFN) is a national advocacy organization representing First Nation citizens in Canada, which includes more than 900,000 people living in 634 First Nation communities and in cities and towns across the country. http://www.afn.ca/about-afn/

Namaste is pleased to be hosting a special edition Namaste420 Youtube live-stream at 9:00 AM EST on July 3rd, 2018 to discuss the Agreement with IcMD and answer questions. To join the stream please visit the link below;

Management Commentary

Christopher Henry, CEO of IcMD comments: “As a proud member of the MMF I have been consistently involved in Indigenous employment and advancement to towards complete self-sufficiency. For the past 25 years, I have worked closely with and in Indigenous communities across Canada. During that time, I have personally seen the lack of access to almost every service most Canadians take for granted every day. By partnering with Namaste Technologies and NamasteMD we are able to gain access to technology that would allow us to realize our dream of putting healthcare in the hands of the people. This has the potential to change how we provide healthcare to Indigenous communities across Canada and bring them one more step to equality with all Canadians.”

Christopher Henry is a member of the Manitoba Metis Federation and co-owner of WorkingWarriors.ca a national Indigenous Engagement and Employment Company.

Michael Birch, President, and COO of IcMD comments: “I grew up in Garden Hill First Nation. A fly in remote community in Northern Manitoba with over 3000 residents. We didn’t have access to a doctor or nurse or even a healthcare facility at times. To be able to put access to reliable secure healthcare in the hands of our people is a dream I didn’t think would ever happen in my lifetime. By partnering with Namaste and NamasteMD we will finally be able to give all Indigenous people, regardless of location, access to a more equal standard of care.”

Michael Birch is an entrepreneur originally from Garden Hill First Nation. He is owner & President of MBE a Facility Management and Logistics Company for Indigenous communities.

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste comments: “We are beyond honored to have partnered with IcMD and their management team who exemplify the nature of Namaste and our core values. We truly believe that our technology will improve the health and well-being of hundreds of thousands of people in Indigenous communities across Canada. The level of accessibility to high-quality healthcare that we will be able to offer has the ability to create a significant social impact to all Indigenous communities. We are proud to be partnered with IcMD’s management team who are deeply committed to this cause.

This Agreement is just the start of what we feel will evolve into a long-term relationship and success in bringing value to the lives of many Indigenous people. While the legalization of recreational cannabis may not be accessible to community members across Canada, Namaste will serve to provide convenient access to medical cannabis in remote areas not yet served by the recreational market.

For IcMD to select Namaste among hundreds of ACMPR Licensed Producers in Canada, speaks volumes as to the value in our technology and we feel privileged to embark on this new and exciting initiative for the betterment of all Indigenous communities and its members. We’d like to thank IcMD’s team, Christopher Henry and Michael Birch for their support and hard work in putting together this exciting partnership.

We’re also pleased to announce the submission of the TSX Venture Form 5G at the close of the market on Friday, June 29th, 2018, and we anticipate commencing our Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”), whereby the Company will purchase up to 25,308,136 of its common shares, or 8.9% of the “Public Float” (as such term is defined in the TSX-V Corporation Finance Manual).”

About Indigenous Cannabis Medical Dispensaries Inc.

IcMD’s goal is to put reliable and accessible healthcare in the hands of Indigenous people. By working with our relationships created over a lifetime of work in the Indigenous community IcMD will bring medical cannabis to every region of Canada. We believe that the over prescription of pharmaceuticals to our people has had a negative effect on our communities. By offering a natural solution to many common conditions we believe will we be more able to return to our traditional roots. Moving towards health consultations and treatment plans will eventually see IcMD as the nationwide leader in direct Indigenous healthcare equality.

Namaste $N.ca $NXTTF Announces Intention to Commence a Normal Course Issuer Bid to Repurchase Up to 10% of its Public Float and Provides a Corporate Update Including Incoming CFO, New Board Director and Consultants $ACB.ca $HIP.ca $WEED.ca $CMED.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:48 AM on Thursday, June 28th, 2018

  • Subject to regulatory approval, it intends to commence a normal course issuer bid 
  • The Company intends to purchase up to 25,308,136 common shares, representing approximately 8.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares and 10% of the Company’s “public float”

VANCOUVER, June 28, 2018 – Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (TSXV: N)(FRA: M5BQ)(OTCMKTS: NXTTF) is pleased to announce that, subject to regulatory approval, it intends to commence a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”). The Company intends to purchase up to 25,308,136 common shares, representing approximately 8.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares and 10% of the Company’s “public float” (as such term is defined in the TSX-V Corporation Finance Manual).

The Company is in the process of appointing Canaccord Genuity Inc. as its broker to conduct the NCIB on its behalf. The NCIB will commence three business days following the TSX-V’s acceptance of the Company’s Notice of Intention to commence the NCIB.

All purchases will be made through the facilities of the TSX-V at market prices and otherwise in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX-V. All common shares acquired by the Company under the NCIB are being purchased for cancellation.

Namaste’s board of directors believes that, from time to time, the market price of the common shares does not adequately reflect the Company’s underlying value and future prospects and that, at such times, the purchase of the common shares represents an appropriate use of the Company’s financial resources and will enhance shareholder value.

In addition to the NCIB, the Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Kenneth Ngo as the Company’s CFO and the appointment of Fern Glowinsky, president of Merrco Payments Inc. (“Merrco”) to the Company’s board of directors. Namaste has also engaged advisory consultants including Tim Henley and Dr. Paul Neider (DVM) who are focused on launching CBD production for both human and pet consumption in Namaste’s international markets. Additionally, the Company’s board of directors has approved new stock options grants in accordance with the Company’s stock option plan.

CFO Appointment

The Company is also pleased to announce the appointment of Kenneth Ngo as Namaste’s CFO. Kenneth Ngo joined Namaste Technologies Inc. as a corporate controller in April 2018.  He has more than 20 years of experience in finance and has held positions of increasing responsibility in a number of US and Canadian publicly traded companies.  He received his Chartered Accountant designation while working for Deloitte LLP.  Mr. Ngo is a graduate of Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. He is a member of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario and a U.S. Certified Public Accountant in the state of Colorado.

Mr. Ngo, Namaste CFO comments: “I’m thrilled to being part of an exciting journey. Namaste is a true visionary of technology platforms that is well positioned for significant growth.”

Subsequently, Mr. Philip Van der Berg has submitted his resignation as Namaste CFO and the Company would like to take the opportunity to thank him for his service and wish him best of luck on his future endeavors.

Board Appointment

The Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Fern Glowinsky, CEO of Merrco to its board of directors. Namaste has been a client of Merrco for several years and is proud to have their CEO join the board. Fern Glowinsky joined Merrco in March 2018 following its acquisition of Payfirma Corporation. Merrco and Payfirma are committed to helping established and emerging businesses thrive through access to payments technology. Ms. Glowinsky has extensive payments sector experience, spending 15 years as a senior executive at Moneris, most recently as COO with accountability for enterprise operations, passionately focused on transforming customer experience. In 2016 Ms. Glowinsky joined Cliffside Capital as CEO and Director, managing its investments in the alternative lending sector. Ms. Glowinsky is a graduate of the joint MBA/JD program at Schulich School of Business and Osgoode Hall Law School and holds the ICD.D designation.

Fern Glowinsky, comments: “With Merrco’s dedication to enabling payments in the cannabis sector, I’m extremely excited to be joining Namaste’s board and partnering with Sean, his team and the rest of the board as Namaste continues its mission of innovating cannabis technology solutions globally, while delivering a better user experience.”

Advisory Consultants

Subject to TSX-V approval, Namaste is planning on launching the sale of CBD products in international markets, particularly in the under-serviced markets in the UK and EU and has been working hard to develop new sales channels. As such, Namaste has engaged two consultants, Tim Henley and Dr. Paul Neider who provide valuable resources that will have a direct impact on the success of such endeavors. These two appointments will help Namaste in launching CBD products for both human consumption and for animal applications, as Dr. Neider is a doctor of veterinary medicine and supporter of CBD use to support the well-being of pets and animals.

Tim Henley has spent the last 3 years researching and studying the Cannabinoid space and trends. His research in CBD (Cannabidiol) lead him to become a Director of the UK’s Cannabis Trades Association.  Tim was instrumental in helping organize the early days of the association and its membership. He subsequently stood down to pursue a more radical approach to economic development and cannabis reform. Tim has been actively engaged in working with Namaste to assess the regulatory requirements for the sale of CBD products in the UK and has provided advisory services to both Namaste and its partners in the context of packaging and marketing of CBD products. Tim’s role with Namaste outside of his consultancy will be procuring the highest quality CBD products for the Company’s e-commerce marketplace.

Tim Henley, Namaste’s New Products Manager comments: “I came across Namaste when developing my business. I wanted to sell vaporizers and found Namaste to be a really easy modern company to deal with and set up my own company, Cannablyss Ltd.  I would often talk to Kory Zelickson, co-founder, as I placed my wholesale orders. I am an evangelist for 21st Century Cannabis and its potential to help humanity fix so many of the ills of modern society. Be it the revolution in our understanding of the Endocannabinoid system and how this affects our bodies in so many ways. We need to nourish our minds and bodies with Phyto cannabinoids not pharmaceuticals. The changes I have seen in the industry are nothing compared to what is coming. Namaste is helping to create the future and it’s the most exciting and dynamic company I have ever worked for. Namaste is going to change the world building a sustainable future!!”

Paul Neider is an accomplished veterinarian and serial entrepreneur.  Being the founder of three veterinary hospitals, three other companies, shows Paul’s creativity and ability to diversify into various fields. He is passionate about helping animals (humans too) which carries through to his activities with Namaste.  He will work at a task until perfection and never stops learning. Dedicated, enthusiastic and fun to be around, living with four dogs reminds him to just chase a ball once in a while!

Paul Neider, DVM comments: “The team at Namaste is one of the most innovative and passionate group of entrepreneurs I’ve met in a long time. By joining them I will help expand the company into the very large veterinary/pets market.”

Stock Option Grant

Subject to the terms of the Company’s Stock Option Plan, Namaste’s board of directors has approved the issuance of 2,515,000 options to a number of employees and consultants of the Company. All options are exercisable at a price of $1.32 per common shares for a period of five years. The options will vest in quarterly instalments over a two-year period.

Management Commentary

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste comments: “We’re very pleased to announce strengthen Namaste’s corporate governance team by announcing the appointment of Kenneth Ngo as our new CFO and Fern Glowinsky to our board of directors. Both Kenneth and Fern will provide great value to the company in their respective roles. We believe that Namaste is remains in the infancy stage of our development as a technological leader in the global cannabis industry and as such are pleased to announce our intentions to commence a NCIB to buy back and cancel up 10% of the Company’s “public float”. Furthermore, we’re very pleased to bring on Tim Henley and Paul Neider to lead the launch of high-quality CBD products in our platform for both human and animal use. CBD products have been proven effective in treating many conditions and in improving overall health and well-being.

We’d like to take the opportunity to thank everyone for their support and to welcome new members to the team. We are very excited about the future of the Company and look forward to many milestones to come. Namaste is constantly evolving and adapting to the changing landscape of this exciting industry that we are very proud to be a part of.”

Namaste $N.ca $NXTTF signs Master Services Agreement with Australian-based YPB to Provide consumer confidence solutions to its customers $ATT.ca $ABCN.ca $ACG.ca $ACB $WEED.ca $HIP.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:36 AM on Wednesday, June 27th, 2018

  • Announced signing of a Master Services Agreement with YPB Group Ltd. (“YPB”)(ASX: YPB), an Australian based product verification and customer engagement company
  • Namaste plans to introduce YPB’s solutions across its network of manufacturers and to Canadian Licensed Producers to bring certainty of authenticity and supply chain transparency to the entire legal cannabis industry globally

VANCOUVER, June 27, 2018 – Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (TSXV: N)(FRA: M5BQ)(OTCMKTS: NXTTF) is pleased to announce signing of a Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) with YPB Group Ltd. (“YPB”)(ASX: YPB), an Australian based product verification and customer engagement company. Namaste has identified the need for its global customers to have confidence in the products they are purchasing, and for vendors to have access to granular data on their end-users. As such, Namaste plans to introduce YPB’s solutions across its network of manufacturers and to Canadian Licensed Producers to bring certainty of authenticity and supply chain transparency to the entire legal cannabis industry globally. This coalition furthers Namaste’s agenda in providing leading technology platforms for its global marketplace and in enhancing the user’s experience for its customers.

Namaste is the world’s largest and most comprehensive cannabis-focused e-commerce platform with 32 sites in 20 countries and over 600,000 monthly visits to their e-commerce sites with a database of approximately 1.5 million users. Their fully integrated e-commerce network spans across the globe offering everything from rolling papers to vaporizers. In Canada, Namaste has developed the country’s first telemedicine app, available on iPhone and Android devices which allows patients to connect to doctors or nurse practitioners and have access to a wide range of high-quality cannabis products and services. The shared strategy of this Agreement is to leverage Namaste’s market position with the objective that all vendors on its platform across the entire cannabis supply chain will adopt this technology and mark every product with YPB ProtectCodes to help protect consumers by ensuring the products and services they are purchasing are safe and reliable.

Sean Dollinger, President, and CEO of Namaste comments: “Our extensive tender process identified Australian-based company YPB as being able to deliver the most sophisticated forensic level anti-counterfeit security for brand protection. We are confident YPB’s Secure Supply Chain tracking will enhance trust in the legitimacy and integrity of the vast range of products and services being sold throughout the industry. Namaste has spent years building strong, trusted relationships with vendors in the industry many of whom suffer from having their products counterfeited and sold through unlicensed distributors. Through this partnership, Namaste offers an effective solution to further support our vaporizer and hardware vendors. Additionally, we believe this technology has the ability to revolutionize the sale of cannabis throughout the Canadian market, with the potential for global market penetration. We fully intend on leveraging our relationships with licensed producers with the hope of providing additional value to LP’s and their customers. As the market expands and becomes more competitive we expect to see an increased demand for the adoption and implementation of anti-counterfeit security to ensure all parties involved are adequately protected. We believe YPB is a leader in the space and we are excited to work alongside them to come up with unique solutions for the cannabis industry.

In the last five years, Founder and CEO of YPB, John Houston has seen a notable increase in the number of global eCommerce brands who are looking at how to protect consumers and brand value with YPB’s technology. It is predicted that by 2022, the value of the global counterfeit market will reach $US4.2 Trillion and 5.4 million jobs will be at risk. According to World Health Organization estimates, one million people die each year from counterfeit medicines. Counterfeit is a global issue and brands are increasingly needing to become smarter and look at ways to protect their customers from fakes to mitigate risk to their brand reputation.

The ability to engage directly with customers who have scanned a YPB protected product to confirm authenticity but have not purchased through a Namaste platform will also provide them with valuable market intelligence to know, understand and connect with a greater proportion of the cannabis community more effectively.

John Houston, YPB Executive Chairman comments: “Namaste is a smart, rapidly growing company with powerful competitive advantages and a unique central hub position in the legal cannabis industry. YPB could not find a better partner with whom to participate in the expected rapid growth of cannabis consumption. Namaste’s footprint offers YPB exceptional global access with ease of execution at low cost and its adoption of our technology is recognition of the power of product authenticity to build customer trust, relationships and numbers. This is YPB’s single biggest opportunity yet and we will work closely with Namaste to ensure conversion to real shareholder wealth. I’m also delighted to welcome Namaste onto our share register and the magnification of our mutual interests that it brings.”

Namaste $N.ca $NXTTF enters into distribution agreement with Lowell Herb Co California’s fastest growing #cannabis brand to penetrate the Canadian recreational market $ACB.ca $HIP.ca $WEED.ca $CMED.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:44 AM on Wednesday, June 6th, 2018

Namaste Technologies (CNW Group/Namaste Technologies Inc.)

  • Company has signed a supply and distribution agreement with Lowell Herb Co.
  • To launch Lowell Smokes brand of ultra-premium cannabis products for the Canadian recreational and medical cannabis markets
  • Agreement represents a strategic partnership between Namaste and Lowell Smokes to leverage Namaste’s resources and Lowell’s international brand appeal

VANCOUVER, June 6, 2018Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (TSXV: N)(FRA: M5BQ)(OTCMKTS: NXTTF) is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a supply and distribution agreement (the “Agreement”) with Lowell Herb Co. (“Lowell Smokes” or “lowellsmokes.com”) to launch Lowell Smokes brand of ultra-premium cannabis products for the Canadian recreational and medical cannabis markets. In anticipation of Canada’s roll-out of legal recreational cannabis, the Agreement represents a strategic partnership between Namaste and Lowell Smokes to leverage Namaste’s resources and Lowell’s international brand appeal. Namaste will work with Lowell Smoke’s procurement team to source the highest quality cannabis grown with organic methods and facilitate packaging and distribution through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Cannmart Inc. (“Cannmart”). Namaste anticipates a strong demand for organic cannabis products as the general consumer market becomes more conscious of the products they consume.

California is considered by many to be the most competitive cannabis brand market in the world. Lowell Smokes has established itself as one of the strongest brand names in California and within the entertainment industry and its ties to Hollywood have played a key role in supporting the brand and making it ideally suited for international expansion. In a recent BDS Analytics report, Lowell Smokes ranked as the #1 pre-roll brand in California amongst over 50 other brands listed, with an impressive 12% market share. Lowell Smokes is in over 250 top dispensaries across the entire state of California. With celebrities like N.O.R.E, Snoop Dogg, Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman, Bella Thorne, Bria Vinaite, Sasha Lane and dozens of others talking about the brand and posting content on social media, this Agreement will bring great value to Namaste and its shareholders.

With the impending roll-out of recreational cannabis in Canada, the Company believes that over time, the commoditization of Cannabis will require companies to become more innovative in branding and marketing to differentiate themselves. Namaste will continue to pursue strategic partnerships where the Company can leverage their e-commerce and technology platform to provide value to brands like Lowell Smokes.

Terms of the Agreement

  • Namaste will secure supply of high-quality cannabis and produce Lowell Smoke’s branded products on-site at Cannmart.
  • Lowell Smokes will provide packaging and branding guidelines, in compliance with Health Canada regulations.
  • Lowell Smokes will pay a monthly rental fee that will include storage and overhead costs to Cannmart.
  • Lowell Smokes will pay Namaste a 5% royalty fee for all wholesale orders sold through Cannmart.
  • Lowell Smokes will provide Namaste with wholesale prices for non-cannabis products that will be sold through Namaste’s e-commerce platform.

Namaste $N.ca Announces Updates to NamasteMD Patient Acquisition Portal and Appointment of Baran Dilaver as Interim COO $ACB.ca $HIP.ca $WEED.ca $CMED.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:00 AM on Monday, May 14th, 2018

Namaste large new

  • Announced the integration of several critical updates to the Company’s online patient acquisition tool, NamasteMD Inc.
  • Company’s revolutionary mobile app, which is available on desktop, Apple IOS and Android devices, has allowed Namaste to accelerate patient growth at a rate that exceeds any industry peers and at significantly lower cost per patient

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 14, 2018 – Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (TSXV:N) (FRANKFURT:M5BQ) (OTCMKTS:NXTTF) is pleased to announce the integration of several critical updates to the Company’s online patient acquisition tool, NamasteMD Inc. (“NamasteMD”). NamasteMD, which is the Company’s revolutionary mobile app, which is available on desktop, Apple IOS and Android devices, has allowed Namaste to accelerate patient growth at a rate that exceeds any industry peers and at significantly lower cost per patient. NamasteMD is presently ranked as the #2 Medical application in the Canadian Apple Store. NamasteMD provides a simple digital platform for patients to acquire medical cannabis documentation from the comfort of their home. Since its initial launch, the Company has acquired over 2,000 patients exclusively through organic growth without any paid advertising. The Company believes that the recent updates to the app will allow Namaste to fully deploy its marketing strategy and accelerate growth in what the Company believes will soon be Canada’s largest database of medical cannabis patients.

With this release patients now have a more streamlined and reliable video experience, enabled by our trusted partner Twilio. This release also includes stability and performance improvements, including a fix for a bug that was preventing a small percentage of our users from logging in. The Company will focus on continued updates to increase the acceleration rate of its patient database through organic and paid advertising channels.

Additionally, the Company would like to announce that co-founder Kory Zelickson is transferring roles to become Vice President of Business Development and Investor Relations, and that Baran Dilaver will be appointed as the Company’s interim Chief Operating Officer. With the Company’s rapid expansion, Kory will focus on the growth of the Company in the areas of business development, strategic partnership and in investor relations and hand-off operations to Baran Dilaver, who has many years of experience in operations. This strategic decision will allow both Kory and Baran to excel in each of their respective areas to further propel the growth of the Company. Mr. Baran Dilaver has extensive experience in running companies and for the past three months, Baran Dilaver has been focused on improving Namaste’s operations and organizing its various business divisions. The Company welcomes Baran in joining as Interim COO and believes that these changes will provide further value to its shareholders. Upon his appointment, Baran Dilaver commented: “I am thrilled to have such a critical role in shaping Namaste’s future, and I am in a great position to lead the recruitment of a world class COO to hand over some of the initiatives I started here with the operations and finance teams.”

About Baran Dilaver

Baran is an entrepreneur, creator, and an accomplished executive.  He launched several well-known brands worldwide and conceived and developed over 80 products.  Baran is the founder of FutureScape, a technology focused product design and branding company and recently, as the COO and CMO at Firefly Vapor, he created and implemented business strategies that established Firefly as one of the most admired brands in the cannabis industry.  Prior to Firefly, Baran Dilaver was the CEO of United Brands, a leading food technology company based out of San Francisco. He is a speaker in conferences like Tech Open Air Berlin, CannaTech, and European Communications Summit.  He was a scholar athlete at UC Berkeley and studied Economics.  He loves kitesurfing and snowboarding around the world and building large-scale art installations at Burning Man.

Management Commentary

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste comments; “We’re very pleased to have had major updates approved to the NamasteMD platform. I believe that NamasteMD provides the Company with a competitive edge in being the first company in Canada to fully digitize patient acquisition. At a cost of only $60 per patient, Namaste is able to acquire patients at a much lower cost than our peers who require the use of physical clinics or doctors to acquire patients. In a very short period of time we have managed to acquire over 2,000 patients organically with zero spend on marketing or promotion. At this point of the business cycle we now feel that the platform is ready for full launch and anticipate an even more significant acceleration of growth over the next several months through a strategic marketing campaign.

Additionally, I’m very pleased to have Kory focus on his areas of expertise in business development and investor communications where he brings major value to the Company. We have been continuously growing as a company and Kory has filled in as COO, but we have now decided to have each team member focus exclusively in their areas of expertise. The investor relations and business development role is very important to the Company and Kory is best fit for this role. We are also very pleased to be bringing on Baran Dilaver as interim COO who has many years of experience in the industry and as someone who has developed a deep level of understanding of Namaste’s global operations. Moving forward we are in a prime position to leverage an amazing management team and innovative technology to advance as a global leader in all things cannabis.”
