"NanoSphere's CSE listing and the completion of the $5.9 million escrow release marks one of what will be many milestones for NanoSphere on its road to revolutionizing not only the way Cannabis is administered, but other substances as well," commented David Sutton, President of NanoSphere.
NanoSphere is commercializing its disruptive, next-generation nanoparticle delivery system platforms for cannabis under the brand Evolve Formulas. Evolve has already launched its acclaimed NanoSerum™ product for the recreational and medical cannabis markets in Colorado. NanoSerum™ is the first clinically-tested transdermal cannabis product to relieve pain in minutes.
The award-winning Evolve is now available in 70 accounts throughout Colorado. NanoSphere expects to rapidly partner with manufacturers and operators in several states to license our technology and bring the Evolve brand to new markets throughout the United States, and to build on that success by further introducing new product applications. Each product application will deliver a unique pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of cannabinoid activity and therapeutic applications.
Robert Sutton, Chairman and CEO of the Company, adds "Evolve Formulas is going strong, and we are excited to continue the momentum and are very pleased to have made such significant progress."
