About this event

Alex is the co-founder and CEO of GrowLab Organics Ltd (GLO), the first cannabis company on the Isle of Man to receive regulatory approval to cultivate, process, manufacture, import and export legal cannabis products. GLO have also developed GLOchain, a proprietary blockchain software to allow complete traceability for all plants.

Alex has held multiple Hemp licences in the UK and brings expertise to the emerging cannabis industry both locally and internationally. Prior to GLO, Alex has twice been a Founder and held a series of C-suite roles both on and off-island.
