Akerna (Nasdaq: KERN), a global regulatory compliance technology company in the cannabis space, has completed an agreement with Rolling in Green, a pre-roll cannabis automation company that provides a turn-key processing solution for licensed producers.

With our MJ Platform, we provide both the depth of cannabis-specific knowledge and technology experience required to enable businesses to maximize ROI and succeed.”
