DENVER, May 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Jessica Billingsley, COO and Co-founder of MJ Freeway, a business software company for the cannabis industry, will be presenting at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Technology Fair May 19th in Washington D.C. The Tech Fair is part of a technical training White House initiative to foster innovation and to provide expertise to patent examiners.
Billingsley will join members of Microsoft, BitCoin, and Square to discuss the legal cannabis market, technology advancements, and the future of the industry. "To be invited to the annual Tech Fair, which has hosted companies like Google, IBM, and Apple, is a tremendous honor, not only for MJ Freeway, but for the entire cannabis industry," Billingsley said.
Medical cannabis legislation exists in 23 states and Washington D.C. Five of these states also have adult use laws in place. As the industry continues to grow, the technical innovations in cannabis seed to sale tracking software, such as MJ Freeway's patent pending offering, as well as technical innovations in cannabis genetics, testing, delivery methods, and cultivation technology, etc. are impressive, with significant cross-over potential to other industries.
"I look forward to sharing my insight into existing and emerging cannabis technology with members of the USPTO," said Billingsley. With extensive experience with cannabis businesses across all regulated markets, Billingsley will speak to MJ Freeway's patent-pending traceability technology, which captures everything happens in an individual plant's life, providing visibility throughout the supply chain from any gram of finished product dispensed to a patient or customer, back to the plant it came from, and all activity, transportation, and transactions that happened in between.
She will also share her perspective regarding emerging cannabis technology across a broad range of topics, including some of its potential applications in other vertical markets. For more information about Patent Examiner Technical Training Program, click here.
