Meet the team of Vertosa at the 2021 Cannabis Drinks Expo this November

Vertosa is a science-first cannabis company that creates the most effective and reliable active ingredients for infused products.

Founded in 2018, Vertosa is a science-first cannabis company that creates the most effective and reliable active ingredients for infused products. Its patented and patent-pending emulsion systems are carefully designed for the specific needs of each customer, with pre-suspended aqueous solutions that create incredibly homogeneous and stable products while maximizing bioavailability, clarity and taste. 

Trust

Vertosa’s principal core value is trust. Every day, the team seeks to infuse trust into the cannabis and hemp supply chain. As trusted advisors to the brands it serves, Vertosa’s experts work closely with brands—both large and small—throughout the manufacturing process to achieve a targeted experience and accelerate products to market. Vertosa relies on lab and consumer-based evidence to support claims while identifying and communicating limitations, even of their own knowledge. It’s this dedication to excellence that pushes the company to improve every day. 

Leadership

From emulsion science to vetting supply chain partners, Vertosa has the deep industry experience and the team is recognized as subject matter experts across many aspects of the cannabis industry.  This not only provides brands with the tools needed to effectively bring products to market, but Vertosa also actively shares knowledge with other operators to ensure the growth and sophistication of the industry as a whole.

Community

Vertosa understands the significance of the historical advocacy movement and believes success happens collectively. Working with a product that has a long history of discriminatory enforcement, Vertosa understands the important responsibility to promote a level playing field and foster opportunities for those disproportionately impacted by the war on drugs.

Vertosa commits 1% of revenue to ensure social equity programs in its community have the financial support they need to thrive. In addition to this financial commitment, Vertosa partners with non-profit organizations such as Last Prisoner Project, Cannabis for Black Lives, Our Dream and Eaze Momentum. Vertosa also deploys its team members to provide hands-on support for each organization. Further, Vertosa is committed to taking active leadership roles on advisory boards, participating in mentoring programs and hosting educational workshops to reduce the impact of the war on drugs.

Excellence

Vertosa believes in the power of natural ingredients and science working in concert to create better alternatives to recreational consumer products and medicine.

Vertosa unlocks the healing power of the cannabis plant by making it approachable and accessible to all through familiar product form factors that fit seamlessly into cultural norms and further destigmatize cannabis consumption. For example, alcohol is very much a part of many social settings and the opportunity for low-dose infused beverages is to provide both an alternative to alcohol and offer a familiar and social form factor that can be an easy entry-point for canna-curious consumers.
