Luqa, Malta: – Life sciences environment specialist Evolve Ltd (Evolve) has signed a major medical partnership with two specialist medical cannabis firms, Malta and UK-based Cannanalytica and Greek-based Cannabreeze.

The partners aim to further develop the ethical cannabis industry for the Mediterranean region and across Europe by better serving customer needs and providing a single point of contact with overall responsibility.

The collaboration will see all three companies working together on major medical cannabis projects, in the region, with each focusing on their fields of expertise from technical knowledge to cultivation and packaging.

Synergistic capabilities

Each of the partners brings specific expertise and capabilities to bear in forming an end-to-end consulting and production development service.

  • Cannanalytica offers regulatory, EU-GMP certification and business development consultancy services to investors and licensed producers currently present in the medical cannabis space or planning to enter it.
  • The Cannabreeze team provides a full 360-degree in-depth innovative approach in consultation and equipment, from medical cannabis cultivation to processing facilities.
  • Evolve has a proven record of success in the field, having helped to develop the first EU-GMP-compliant medical cannabis facilities on Malta in 2019.

The Luqa-based company is also the leading turnkey contractor for any other part of the investment, including cleanroom processing, lab equipment and supplies and purified water loops.

Enabling market entry

Evolve managing director Christopher Busuttil Delbridge commented: “With this cooperation agreement, the entry pains of planning and setting up the facilities required will be taken on by our newly-formed venture.”

“The future is bright for anyone setting up operations in this industry and this partnership has just made it easier,” Mr. Busuttil Delbridge declared.

“Together, we have decades of experience in the industry, and this joint project will allow investors and growers to move directly to what they want to do and are good at, reaping the fruits of their efforts,” he said.

Ensuring regulatory compliance

Recently Evolve began producing a series of guides to cultivating, testing and licensing cannabinoids such as CBD and CBG  for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and other applications, recognizing the imperatives to ensure regulatory compliance through rigorous quality control (QC).

Evolve has identified QC and product consistency as key challenges for would-be ethical cannabis producers in meeting complex regulatory approval processes.

Overcoming these challenges will require use of sophisticated laboratory methods, including High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Gas Chromatography (GC), Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), all of which require extensive laboratory experience, with training and deep understanding of analytical chemistry.

Evolve believes cannabis producers will increasingly look to outsourcing or consultancy to set up or upgrade  their growing, processing, and QA testing to meet required GMP and other standard.
