Hellenic Dynamics vice president and CEO Davinder Rai
The company grows its plants in a 200,000-square metre ex-military bunker in Northern Greece, but is headquartered in London.
The CEO quipped that he thought there was something “very romantic about growing cannabis in an ex-bunker.”
Journey so far
Rai said he first became involved in the cannabis industry when his father, a kidney transplant patient, faced serious health problems. One of his transplanted kidneys had become cancerous and as a result Rai’s father was put on a heavy course of opioids for pain management.
“You could see that the pain treatment really wasn’t touching the sides,” the CEO said.
