Marijuana S.A.

A New Yorker of Colombian origin and with business of coal in Cundinamarca, wants to be the first to manufacture legal medicines derived from cannabis in the country. Will he succeed?

I WHO Reaches persevere. That is convinced John Field, a commission of US stock barranquilleros parents , lowest speaks Spanish, but Who is tongue-tied with words Difficult to pronounce. So if you are not entangled is your notion of doing business in the country , where not only wants to win silver , But Also innovate.

First he tried to get into flowers, but gave no result ; then realized that the business was in coal , mineral in 2011 walked in the boom in Colombia and rising prices. He met an engineer who already had several mining rights in the country and partnered with him to exploit the mine in La Tabaquera Guaduas , Cundinamarca.

What he did was use a company he had created and had registered in the OTC (Over The Counter) in the United States and performed what is technically known as a reverse merger ( reverse merger ) , by which a company buys another is at Bolsa to avoid the process of listing on the stock market. The new company dedicated to coal in the country , with offices in Guaduas and listed on Wall Street was called New Colombia Resources.

While metallurgical coal mine exploration goes on sale , Campo began looking for other businesses that could attach to your company. So he got the cultivation of oil palm, partnering with some Malaysian investors, which imported a seed that takes the palm in less time than it normally takes. He planted 2,600 trees in Maria la Baja, Bolivar , and is awaiting the results. He also got into coffee, but that business was unsuccessful and his newest venture is in the making in the country of herbal medicinal marijuana.

The idea comes from his work as a commission , for there he negotiated and partnered with the laboratories of products derived from marijuana , whose actions have shown high profitability and are fired from January this year, when the recreational use of cannabis was legalized two US states.

"In 2009, when I started talking about it with here friends in Colombia , was not even the possibility and also were in the government Uribe, now things have changed and internationally the issue is more accepted ," says Field, who nevertheless has been transforming your idea after meeting with lawyers and national experts.

Initially wanted to ask permission to grow marijuana , find the best varieties and transform them into drugs for diseases such as cancer or arthritis , whose therapeutic efficacy has already been proven. However , the fact becomes almost impossible to cultivate joint licensing of Narcotics and ICA , so now the plan is to import oil or syrup that pulls out marijuana legally and whose removal makes the University of Mississippi , because it has federal permit.

" As soon as they certify me that I can buy the raw material to bring it to Colombia , I will request permission from Invima and do what they do with Coca -Cola , as its base or secret formula here is imported and becomes the gas , "he adds

His plan is to work with laboratory paisa Farmatech that maquilaría products for New Colombia Resources and initially would topical medications , especially for skin cancer, using the parameters of the FDA, the food and drug agency US the final goal is to export drugs.

Topic patent

And why give so much back if already in the United States is grown and can do the processing for converting medical cannabis ? The answer is to make the field of manufacturing laboratory is cheaper in Colombia and also sees a business opportunity in US law. "There is discord between the federal government, for which marijuana is illegal , and more than 22 states that have passed their medicinal use. That makes it easier to get international patents before American companies , because they only are allowed in some states. Where and how the federal government seeks to regulate the issue , and would we Colombians of patents " he says.

Your new business idea coincides with the project settled Senator Juan Manuel Galán in the First Committee to allow the medical use of marijuana in the country. Although the proposal was immediately rejected by the Church , has the support of several political parties and opposition congressmen like Jose Obdulio Gaviria, the Democratic Centre , who in a virtual conference organized by Weather expressed support for the idea.

As this bill would amend Article 49 of the Constitution , which refers to the guarantee of access to services that help the promotion, protection and recovery of health , this Act will require eight debates in Congress. However , its promoters first want to forums and air the issue before starting the legislative process. With this , cultivation , research and production of medicines derived from marijuana would be allowed , as it wants to make New Colombia Resources.

Campo know will not be fast and that the law is critical to your business, but at age 43 say they have time to wait for Colombia into the same legal parameter against marijuana apply more countries. And also have time to wait for their coal shipments from Guaduas not have to go by truck , as initially should do , but by the Magdalena River. " When all this start , I'll be the first to be there," he says in Spanish and coastal accent perfect.
