Vancouver, British Columbia – Plena Global Holdings Inc. is pleased to announce that Medical Director Dr. David Hepburn, will be presenting at the 2018 CannaWorld Congress in Medellin, Colombia on November 22nd and 23rd. Cannaworld Congress is one of the most important medical cannabis events in Colombia and aims to create space for the communication and exchange of knowledge among stakeholders interested in medical cannabis.

Dr. Hepburn’s two presentations will focus on CBD for medical purposes and this particular cannabinoid’s growing popularity in the medical community. These talks will review CBD in its many roles in medicine; it’s contributions, developments, and processes. Dr. Hepburn will delve into the most up to date research to understand what is actually happening when CBD is taken in any form. Is CBD effective when taken as an isolated compound?
