This latest development builds on the licensing deal that CURE and Canopy entered into back in September. Under the terms of the agreement, Canopy obtained exclusive license to CUREfilm for use with cannabis extracts and biosynthetic cannabinoids in global markets.
Why It's Important
Through this partnership, CURE Pharmaceutical will be able to leverage its patented technology and expand it on a global scale. CURE is registered with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency to develop and manufacture cannabis-derived and synthetic cannabinoid products that use CUREfilm for pharmaceutical applications. The company has a production facility in Oxnard, California.
Canopy Growth will have a product that provides an easier and more efficient way to deliver cannabinoids. CUREfilm provides increased bioavailability and more precise dosing.
