Public Policy The California Cannabis Industry Association (CLIA) was founded to promote the growth of a responsible and legitimate cannabis industry. CLIA works towards social, economic, and legal, and environmental goals for the cannabis industry in California. As the industry's top trade organization Cannalysis identified this stakeholder as being key to regulatory policy progress in California. Our Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Swetha Kaul has a PhD in Analytical Chemistry and a Masters in Pharmacology and Toxicology. She has over 11 years of experience and hails from the Botulism Toxin Research and Formulations Team at Allergan. She heads our efforts with CCIA by serving on its Board of Directors. Dr. Kaul is also the Chair of the Quality Control Committee, which makes recommendations to the state regarding testing. This committee is focused on the practical application of the rules and regulations as they pertain to testing labs and the cannabis industry. This committee provides best practices and insights to quality control issues and spear heads educational arm of the CCIA. Dr. Kaul also serves as the chair the Diversity and Inclusion Committee, which pushes for social equity, mentorship, and diversity in the cannabis industry. This work is integral in order to diversify our industry throughout all levels of leadership to reflect the diverse consumer base. Sourcing Local Whenever possible Cannalysis tries to utilize local businesses. We recently began a new robotics project to design a platform which will increase efficiency and accuracy within our lab. The long-term goal is to reduce our operating costs and generate more precise results. Chris Scholl, our Director of Automation and Robotics, has always preferred to utilize local businesses for his projects. These types of projects are complex, and we need to work closely with the supplier in order to get the exact specifications dialed in. We choose to source locally because the proximity to our business allows us to build relationships in our community, receive superior customer service as well as being important to our company culture. To make this project a reality we are currently collaborating with Metal Works, a CNC machine shop located on Edinger Avenue and Grand Avenue. They have been an integral part of creating the Robot's custom stainless-steel gripper fingers and custom anodized aluminum tube rack carriers. We are also working with Bay Advanced Technologies (BAT), an automation supplier located on Ritchey Street and Newport Circle in Santa Ana. BAT have supplied us with the 131Page
