Medical Marijuana, Inc. CEO to Speak on Company's Leading Role in Burgeoning Hemp Market at 13th European Industrial Hemp Association Conference

SAN DIEGO, CA --(Marketwired - May 27, 2016) - Medical Marijuana, Inc. MJNA today announced that at the 13th Annual Conference of the European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA) -- where two major market studies are set to be released showing an expected double digit market growth and a EUR2 billion market potential in Europe for Cannabidiol (CBD) -- Medical Marijuana, Inc. CEO Stuart Titus will speak on how the Company is innovating to take advantage of the burgeoning hemp market. HempMeds, a subsidiary of Medical Marijuana, Inc., will also be exhibiting at the Conference.

Taking place on June 1-2 at the Rheinforum Kolner in Wesseling, Germany, near Cologne, EIHA is expected to bring in at least 250 industry professionals from more than 40 countries to learn about the latest developments concerning industrial hemp and other natural fibers, as well as hemp oil, proteins and pharmaceuticals.

"This is an exciting, yet critical time for the hemp industry," said Dr. Titus. "I'm thrilled with the opportunity to speak to fellow industry professionals and decision makers from across the globe about how we can work together to increase public and governmental awareness of hemp industry benefits to ensure an expanding market."

According to the "Market Study on Hemp Food" and the "Market Study on Cannabidiol (CBD)," a double digit growth rate is expected within the fast-growing hemp food market and the potential for CBD in Europe is estimated at EUR2 billion if used as a medicine for chronic diseases and a minimum of EUR24 million if used as over-the-counter medicine. In 2015, industrial hemp grew in the European Union to a cultivation area of 25,000 ha from 8,000 ha in 2011.

"Europe has always been a global hub for the rapidly growing hemp industry," Dr. Titus added. "In fact, all of Medical Marijuana Inc.'s natural, botanical hemp sourced for our CBD hemp oil products such as Real Scientific Hemp Oil™ (RSHO™) comes from generational European farmers. CBD can benefit the European Union and the world in many ways, from the health and wellness of its people to enormous economic opportunities."

Currently, Medical Marijuana, Inc.'s RSHO™ products are shipping to more than 40 countries, including Puerto Rico, Brazil and Mexico for medical indications ranging from epilepsy to chronic pain (including migraines).

Dr. Titus will present, "The European Union and Medical Marijuana, Inc.: A Natural Partnership" on Thursday, June 2, at 5:20 p.m. Key topics covered will include:

--  A brief history of medical cannabis
--  The current burgeoning marketplace
--  Future market potential of CBD
--  Medical Marijuana, Inc.'s leading role
