"Latin America is a key and growing player in the cannabis industry. Medical cannabis is legal in 10 Latin American countries and that list is growing. Demand for medical cannabis among patients is rapidly expanding. Cannabis business interest in LATAM is exploding due to numerous factors including low cost of production and facilities as compared to North America and Europe. It is estimated that the region's cannabis market will be worth $12.7 billion in 2028 while the medical cannabis market is forecast to be worth $8.5 billion within the decade. I could not be prouder to bring CannaTech to Panama and work with like minded professionals who understand the immense global health and business potential of medical cannabis moving forward," said Saul Kaye, Founder and CEO and Founder of iCAN:Israel-Cannabis and CannaTech.
