HOUSTON, Aug. 10, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Indoor Harvest Corp. (OTCQB:INQD), a developer of personalized cannabis medicines and a provider of advanced cultivation methods and processes, announced today changes to the Company’s Board of Directors.

On August 4th, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Alamo CBD, with a targeted close date of August 15, 2017. This plan completes a six-month process of work transitioning the Company into a producer of cannabis for research and pharmaceutical development. Currently the Company is a pending applicant through its acquisition of Alamo CBD, to produce cannabis, under the Texas Compassionate Use program and is preparing an application to produce cannabis under the Controlled Substance Act.

The Company is also finalizing plans with investors and developers to construct facilities in Arizona and Colorado. The Company intends to generate revenue from its developed facilities through leasing and licensing of its technology and methods.

“It has been an honor to lead the Company’s change management efforts. I will now be stepping aside and assuming the role as Chief of Cultivation of Alamo CBD, allowing me to focus my energy on driving cannabis cultivation science to the next level; something I’m very passionate about. I believe the team that has been assembled will prove truly disruptive to the industry. We’ve got a great team of people who are now focused on a single effort and goal, to become the leading producer of research and pharmaceutical grade cannabis,” said Chad Sykes, the Company’s founder.
