Chris Clarke commented, "We couldn't be more thrilled to have Steve join our newly formed Strategic Advisory Board at this important juncture. The man is well rounded. Steve even worked in the oil gas and software industry negotiating and closing deals around our globe. As announced last month, we are actively expanding into the legalized marijuana – beginning in Colorado and New Jersey. Steve will be instrumental in providing us with the key introductions in areas of sports, music, entertainment, and legalized marijuana industries needed to foster expansion, and in strategizing with our C-level executives on how best to navigate the market – from both an industry standpoint and a legal standpoint."
The Company's consumer e-wallet ordering app will connect smart phone users to the Company's age/ID verification software and allow them to review the dispensaries different products and allow them to pay for them through the mobile app when that service becomes 100% legal. The Company expects this portion of revenues to be the largest of all revenue streams due to transactional and processing revenues of all the dispensaries mobile app customers. The Company's focus is to aggressively expand the app user base into all legalized marijuana states.
