Samuel Adetunji Birthed in Brooklyn, N.Y., to Nigerian mom and pop, Samuel Adetunji states that his eyes were opened to the huge advantages of marijuana after seeing his very own dad fight with liver cancer and finding relief through the use of cannabis oil. Adetunji was working for a Fortune 500 company in Washington, D.C., when he and business associate , Joshua ( recognized on our list this year), attempted to acquire clinical cannabis cards in the Area and also discovered it a less-than-seamless procedure. That influenced them to produce Veriheal, a telehealth business that links individuals around the nation with physicians in their state that can examine as well as advise them for clinical cannabis. Considering in 2017, the "cannatech" (marijuana innovation) firm has actually assisted greater than 100,000 clients to obtain their "puff puff pass" on, released a scholarship to involve even more university student of color in cannabis study, and also developed itself as a leader in marijuana technology as well as entrepreneurship, no small accomplishment in an industry in which only 4 percent of businesses are Black-owned.
