Adaptable Technology Cements Path for Revolutionary Opportunities in Cannabis Industry As Sector Attracts Major Attention Ahead of U.S. Elections

CORAL SPRINGS, Florida, October 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Heavy demand continues for Marijuana industry specific technology and climate control services for Cannabis operations as more U.S. states move towards legalization and acceptance with approaching elections.  Companies in focus today are: Surna Inc. (OTC: SRNA), Growblox Sciences Inc. (OTC: GBLX), Hemp, Inc. (OTC: HEMP), GreenGro Technologies Inc. (OTC: GRNH) and Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTC: MJNA)

Surna Inc. (OTCQB: SRNA), an engineering and manufacturing firm that develops, acquires, produces and sells equipment with a current focus on the legal marijuana industry and the development of disruptive technology, reported multiple, major media organizations outlets -- including Entrepreneur Magazine and Huffington Post -- have featured Surna and its role as a technology leader in the legal cannabis industry.  Separately, the Company noted it has upgraded its website, http://www.surna.com, to a more robust 2.0 which now includes a redeveloped Products & Support section for its high-end commercial product lines.

Entrepreneur Magazine, in its October 28 article states, "As legalization slowly but surely spreads across the country, growers will be looking for somewhere to turn to get specialized support, tools and resources for their unique craft. According to Bollich, success in cannabis tech lies in bringing a lot of disparate pieces together, like bioengineering, retail product development and the power of social word-of-mouth, to navigate an entirely new idea."  The article goes on to say, "Surna's is a system "designed to specifically aid growers in solving their most pressing climate issues for maximum quality and output," Bollich said."  Tom Bollich, the artificial intelligence-savvy robotics engineer who co-founded Zynga, is betting on that boom. As director and CEO of Surna Inc., he's gone from virtual goods in Farmville to a pure play on explosive growth in the cannabis industry. Bollich's Surna produces water-chilled climate control systems, designed for legal marijuana growers but applicable to other hydroponic agriculture needs.

As legalization slowly but surely spreads across the country, growers will be looking for somewhere to turn to get specialized support, tools and resources for their unique craft. According to Bollich, success in cannabis tech lies in bringing a lot of disparate pieces together, like bioengineering, retail product development and the power of social word-of-mouth, to navigate an entirely new idea.  Surna's is a system "designed to specifically aid growers in solving their most pressing climate issues for maximum quality and output," Bollich said. This type of ingenuity is expected to drive greater energy efficiencies and sustainability for commercial agriculture as a whole. That type of functionality makes for a healthy "back-up plan" if decriminalization of cannabis goes slower than anticipated. To read the complete article for Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, All Business and other recent media coverage of Surna, go to http://surna.com/in-the-news  or http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/238550
