We believe that next step is in understanding everything we can about this amazing plant, and that starts with this Cannabis Genomic Research Initiative. Being allowed the opportunity to work with Nolan Kane and the University of Colorado-Boulder in facilitating this important project is a testament to the progress of the cannabis industry. For this Initiative, Denver Relief Consulting will assist in fundraising, genus acquisition/sampling and industry integration. Our goal is to keep the data from this initiative in the public space and for the results to benefit society as a whole, because we believe that Cannabis and hemp, at their full potential, will change the world.

The company’s primary mission was and is to protect the public health by providing infrastructure and analytical services to legally authorized distributors and producers of cannabis and to regulators tracking their operations. The company was founded by David Lampach, Addison Demoura and Steve DeAngelo. Corporate headquarters are in Oakland California. The company’s customers are medical cannabis providers anticipating regulation and inspection by public health authorities. In June 2008 the company developed the first microbiological method for determining mold and bacteria levels on cannabis destined for human consumption.
