MissionIRNewsBreaks – Earth Science Tech, Inc. (ETST) Expands Presence in Blossoming Hemp-Based CBD Market

Earth Science Tech (OTC: ETST), an innovative biotech company focused on the cannabidiol (“CBD”), nutraceutical and pharmaceutical fields, is on track to increase growth and broaden its presence in the cannabis industry. An article discussing the company reads: “The worldwide cannabidiol (CBD) oil market, which includes products derived from both marijuana and hemp, is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 39 percent through 2021. The health benefits of CBD oil are the major driver for growth in this market, with global demand steadily on the rise in recent years. Hemp-based CBD oil products in particular are more popular, as they have a lower concentration of psychoactive compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) than those derived from marijuana, therefore not requiring a medical prescription (http://ibn.fm/ZZbYA). Earth Science Tech, Inc. (OTC: ETST) is one of the companies that is focused on the development of hemp-based CBD products and has taken a number of steps recently to enlarge its presence in this market sector.”

Strong Management Team Leading Net Element, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE) toward Organic Growth, Blockchain-Focused Developments in 2018

  • Leadership team leveraging years of experience to sustainably meet company’s goals

  • Organic growth, single payment processing platform that integrates any payment ecosystem among top goals for 2018 and beyond

  • Payment processing industry set to reach $2.2 trillion by 2021
On the heels of a remarkable performance in 2017, which ended with the strongest balance sheet in the company’s history and a $7.55 million investment, global technology and value-added solutions group Net Element, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE) is targeting sustained organic growth across all sectors, as well as significant advancements in blockchain developments. With a highly experienced and committed management team at the helm, bringing a unique blend of vision, leadership and creative energy, the company looks all but set to achieve its goals for 2018 and beyond.
The overall vision, strategy and execution of Net Element’s mission are in the hands of its CEO and director, Oleg Firer. Recognized as one of the top entrepreneurs in Florida and one of the most influential people in Miami by publications such as Business Leader Magazine, Forbes and Poder Magazine, Firer served as executive chairman of Unified Payments before taking his current position. During his tenure, Unified Payments was ranked as the fastest-growing company in 2012 by Inc. Magazine, having grown its revenues by 23,646 percent over a three-year period. Unified Payments, which provides various payment processing services, including mobile payment acceptance to small- and medium-sized merchants, was acquired by Net Element in April 2013. Firer is leveraging his experience and skills to help drive Net Element’s sustained growth and achieve the group’s long-term goal of creating a single, international processing platform.
The company’s chief technology officer, Andrey Krotov, is an experienced software engineer originating from Russia. He first joined Net Element as a senior software developer in early 2011 but soon became head of Net Element Russia’s development department, where he remained until March 2014, when he took his current management position. He previously worked as a software engineer and senior software engineer with software development companies such as Interactive Tribe GmbH and Artsofte. With a master’s degree from Russia’s Ural State Technical University, Krotov has focused throughout his career on the creation of proprietary intellectual property and the management of both local and outsourced software developing teams. He will use his expertise to continue overseeing and coordinating Net Element’s product development efforts.
With a BS in accounting from Florida State University and vast experience in providing financial and accounting services to a number of companies, Jonathan New has served as chief financial officer of Net Element since 2008. Before joining Net Element, he provided auditing, reporting and corporate accounting services to different public companies. He is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Florida Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Net Element’s chief legal officer and secretary, Steven Wolberg, is an experienced attorney who has been practicing for years in both the United States and South Africa. Wolberg is a member of the Massachusetts Bar Association; he received his bachelor of laws from the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg and his juris doctorate from the New England School of Law in Boston. He has served as chief legal officer of Net Element since 2013, before which he served in various capacities with Acies Corporation, a financial services and payment processing company, and several other firms.
As the global payments industry continues to thrive and is expected to surpass $2.2 trillion dollars in volume by 2021 (http://ibn.fm/vBQfP), Net Element is set to strengthen its position as a leading developer and provider of innovative payment solutions. Supporting electronic payments acceptance in a multi-channel environment, from mobile devices to blockchain, e-commerce and point-of-sale, the company remains focused on continuing its organic growth, developing innovative payment solutions, especially in the field of blockchain and, ultimately, creating a single onboarding and transaction processing platform that will accommodate both local and international payment ecosystems.

Pivot Pharmaceuticals Inc. (CSE: PVOT) (OTCQB: PVOTF) (FRA: NPAT) Named to the CSE25 Index

  • Pivot Pharmaceuticals attains prestigious CSE25 status

  • Recent acquisitions have extended the company’s portfolio in the cannabis space

  • Numerous pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products in development pipeline
Canadian biopharmaceutical company Pivot Pharmaceuticals Inc. (CSE: PVOT) (OTCQB: PVOTF) (FRA: NPAT) announced on March 19, 2018, that it has been named to the CSE25 Index (http://ibn.fm/4S2cb). CSE25 is a conglomerate of the 25 largest companies by market capitalization listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange. This achievement adds to Pivot Pharmaceuticals’ status as a constituent of the CSE Composite Index, which provides a distinctly different risk/return profile than the broad Canadian equity market.
“With an impressive pipeline of bio-cannabis products, a strong intellectual property portfolio of formulation and delivery technologies, and the expected addition of ACMPR licensed Agro-Biotech, we are proud to be recognized as leaders on the Canadian Securities Exchange through our inclusion in the CSE25 Index,” Dr. Patrick Frankham, CEO of Pivot Pharmaceuticals, stated in the news release. “Being among the top 25 performers on the exchange validates our business strategy to become a vertically integrated health and wellness company with a rapidly expanding international presence. With all of the exciting opportunities ahead of us, we believe we will remain a consistent part of the CSE25 Index for years to come as we continue to drive shareholder value.”
In February 2018, Pivot Pharmaceuticals entered into a letter of intent for the acquisition of Agro-Biotech Inc., a cannabis cultivator located in Quebec. Agro-Biotech received its producer’s license on January 12, 2018. On completion of the proposed acquisition, Pivot will be able to conduct research and development and store cannabis derivatives not currently covered under ACMPR regulations. The company will also be in a position to process natural health products and export cannabis oils and concentrates to international markets, once it receives an export permit.
The company’s recent acquisitions also include Thrudermic, LLC, a company based in North Carolina that has developed a transdermal, lipid-based nano-dispersion technology for cannabinoid delivery. Pivot also acquired ERS Holdings, LLC in February 2018, a California-based company that holds patents for the production of powderized cannabis oil that can be added to beverages and baked goods.
Pivot Pharmaceuticals is a Vancouver-based biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development and commercialization of therapeutic pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals through proprietary drug delivery technologies via medical cannabis product division Pivot Green Stream Health Solutions (“PGS”). In early February 2018, the company announced that it had filed three provisional patents for cannabinoid-based product delivery technologies with the U.S. Patent Office. These are for its innovative transdermal nanotechnology, inhalation and mucus topical delivery platforms. Its BiPhasix™ Transdermal Drug Delivery technology has been tested in clinical trials approved by both the FDA and EMA. This delivery platform provides significant advantages over oral delivery technologies.
Pivot has a number of products in its pipeline that are in various stages of development. These target therapies for pain, inflammation, dermatology, eye disease and cancer supportive care. PGS-N005 is a cannabidiol (CBD)-based topical cream to treat female sexual dysfunction, a disorder that is estimated to affect up to 63 percent of women in the United States (http://ibn.fm/0iuTk). The market for female sexual dysfunction disorder therapies is estimated to be more than $4 billion.
