Biopharma Cannabis Segment

Pharmaceutical/Biotech

Cannabinoid Market

The biotech cannabis sector has attracted the most funding out of all the cannabis sectors.

The Cannabis Biotech/ Pharma Market is expected to surpass $20 billion by 2020 according to Viridian Capital Advisors.

Today, there are over 15 publicly traded companies that can be classified as biotechs in the cannabis sector. Only a handful are pursuing FDA pathway with cannabinoid.

The cannabis biotech market is classified as part of the specialty pharmaceutical market, the fastest growing segment of the overall pharmaceutical industry.

CBD science is extensive with first-to-market potential available. Over the last two years there as been renewed interest and investment momentum yet large pharma still watches from sidelines.
