LAS VEGAS, Feb. 26, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Links Corp. (OTC:GLCO), today announced that the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Hemp Life Today, LLC, has launched a proprietary business networking platform for the Cannabis industry called CannaMove.com.
Hemp Life Today's CannaMove.com site will operate similarly to other major business networking organizations, collecting membership dues and planning monthly events that revolve around issues pertinent to the Hemp and Medical Marijuana industry. The first chapter of CannaMove.com will be located in Tampa, FL, home of 'Medical Marijuana Tampa,' the state's first cannabis college. Management of HempLifeToday.com believes that Florida could be the next large state to legalize the use of medical marijuana.
Legal marijuana is among the fastest-growing markets in the US according to a recent Huffington Post article, growing at a rate poised to outpace the expansion of the global smartphone market. Researchers that surveyed hundreds of medical cannabis retailers, processors, dispensary owners and industry leaders last November, estimated that over $1.43 billion worth of legal marijuana would be sold in 2013, also predicting that figure to grow by 64 percent to $2.34 billion this year.
"CannaMove.com is set to become the number one source for businesses in the medical marijuana industry to link up, network, and establish relationships with one another. Not only will this serve as a great networking resource for companies in the booming medical marijuana industry, but it will also provide a major source of traffic to our site, HempLifeToday.com, increasing our product sales," stated Tim Zorn, President of Hemp Life Today.
"This is a very exciting time for Hemp Life Today as we continue to strengthen our brand and grow our revenues. With new legislation continuing to pass and a growing crop of entrepreneurs looking to get involved in the marijuana industry, establishing a premier networking platform like CannaMove.com further distinguishes Hemp Life Today as the leading resource for any business that wants to succeed in the hemp, cannabis and medical marijuana industries. Launching this site will create a new revenue stream for the company through membership fees and could lead to an additional one million visitors to HempLifeToday.com each month, further fueling our rapid growth," continued Mr. Zorn.
