DELIC Labs President and CSO Dr. Markus Roggen to Speak at MJBizCon
Dr. Roggen to Address the "Cost of the Status Quo: An Economic Look at Extraction Optimization", Thursday Oct 21, 2021at 2:00pm PT
VANCOUVER, BC, July 27, 2021 /CNW/ - DELIC Corp Inc. ("DELIC" or the "Company") (CSE: DELC) (OTCQB: DELCF), the leading psychedelic wellness platform, today announced Dr. Markus Roggen, President and CEO of its subsidiary DELIC Labs has been selected as a speaker at MJBizCon 2021. Dr. Roggen will lead a discussion on "Cost of the Status Quo: An Economic Look at Extraction Optimization," Thursday October 21, 2021 at 2:00pm PT. DELIC Labs is a federally-authorized psilocybin and cannabis research laboratory focused on extraction, analytical testing, and chemical process development. DELIC Labs serves as the engine for the DELIC platform, conducting research and developing innovative product lines and intellectual property (IP), including psilocybin vaporization technology for future distribution across the Company's physical footprint and licensed psychedelic wellness clinics in the United States.
"Business managers find that cannabis production does not deliver on the riches promised, due to low yields or high costs," said Dr. Roggen, DELIC Labs President and CSO. "The major obstacle to realize profits from an extraction operation is the disconnect between the business and production teams. Cannabis extraction should not be viewed as a black art but a quantifiable scientific process. And modern process analytics will improve the production and profits."
Founded by award-winning chemist, Dr. Markus Roggen, and UBC Professor, Dr. Glenn Sammis, DELIC Labs supports the psychedelic industry with high precision chemical analytics, metabolomic identification and process optimization. DELIC Labs is one of a handful of licensed psilocybin research labs in Canada and has an aggressive plan to build out a suite of novel compounds and delivery methods for the industry. DELIC Labs is also a leading cannabis analytical and research company boasting clients that include some of the largest brands in the world. DELIC Labs is applying for a Dealer's License, and intends to eventually commercialize its psilocybin research and associated intellectual property (IP).
