  Responsible Investing in the Emerging Cannabis Industry Merida Capital Holdings is a private equity firm targeting fundamental growth drivers underpinning the rapid development of the cannabis industry. Our investment thesis focuses on products and services associated with the evolution of cannabis as an agricultural product, a natural plant-based medicine, a constituent in pharmaceutical formulations, and a recreational consumer product. Members of the Merida Capital executive team have been working with state legal cannabis companies since 2009 and investing in cannabis related companies since 2012. We have honed our investing philosophy through our immersion in the most complex areas of the cannabis industry, the state regulated licensing process for medical cultivation and cannabis-based pharmaceutical development. Our team has competed for and won limited licenses in two of the most strict medical-only states in the United States, relying on our decades of experience in traditional industries of technology, real estate, structured finance and banking. While we have deep experience in the entire cannabis supply chain, our investment emphasis is grounded primarily in four distinct verticals-medical cultivation, cultivation infrastructure; data and technology services; and pharmaceutical development and life sciences. Along with limited- license medical cultivators, we seek compelling long term value as the industry matures by investing in well-managed, revenue generating companies who offer essential products or services to cannabis businesses. www.meridacap.com Show less
