Namaste Technologies Bringing Telemedicine for Medicinal Marijuana to Canada
Namaste Technologies is rolling out a telemedicine portal to connect doctors to medical marijuana patients virtually. The company's co-founder and CEO Sean Dollinger explains how they are bringing this technology to the Canadian market.
"NamasteMD is the first application allowed by the app store for telemedicine in Canada ever for cannabis," said Dollinger. He explains his hope for Namaste Technologies to become a global leader in cannabis by leveraging its technology for partners in the market.
The company is projecting $30 million in revenue for this year.
Namaste Technologies launched in 2014 as a hardware company producing vaporizers. "It allowed us to develop a platform that collected a database and customers around the world," said Dollinger.
