Virogen Inc. announced that it has partnered with California's TheMedMen in a venture that is intended to bring broader exposure to both firms. VRNI expects that, by venturing with TheMedMen, it will be in a position to gain a foothold in the medical marijuana industry, particularly in the lucrative areas of retail supply, support and consulting. TheMedMen anticipates that its association with a publicly-traded company will serve to increase its profile within the $15-20 billion legal marijuana industry.
