London, 27 March 2023: Hellenic Dynamics plc (LSE: HELD) a medical cannabis cultivation company, is pleased to announce the appointment of Katherine Fleming to its Advisory Board. Katherine is currently the President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust, the international cultural and philanthropic institution, overseeing its 1,500 employees and US$8.5 billion endowment fund.

Katherine previously held the position of Provost and Professor of History of New York University, the largest private university in the United States by enrolment, where she is also the Alexander S. Onassis Chair of Hellenic Studies. As Provost, she oversaw the University's global academic strategy and was responsible for budgetary allocation. Past international appointments have included serving as President of the Board of the University of Piraeus, Greece and as associate member of the faculty of the École Normale Supérieure in Paris, France.

Katherine holds a number of honours including being named to the French Légion d'Honneur and being decorated by the Greek Government as a commander in the Order of Beneficence. In 2016 Katherine was recognized for her contributions to Greek culture by being granted honorary Greek citizenship.

Hellenic Dynamics is a medical cannabis cultivator specifically focused on the cultivation and supply of tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC") dominant strains of medical cannabis flowers destined for the rapidly growing medical cannabis markets across Europe. In December 2022, Hellenic Dynamics became the first medical cannabis cultivator to list on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities.  

Davinder Rai, CEO of Hellenic Dynamics, commented:
"We are honoured to have Katherine join our Advisory Board and I personally look forward to working with her. Katherine brings a huge breadth of experience that will benefit Hellenic both domestically in Greece and in wider Europe."

Katherine Fleming, commented: 

"I'm delighted to join Hellenic Dynamics, which connects two worlds about which I care deeply: patients for whom medical cannabis can improve their quality of life and outcomes, and Greece - a country with massive potential for being the leader in the European medical cannabis cultivation space."

About Hellenic Dynamics plc

Founded in 2019, Hellenic Dynamics is specifically focused on the cultivation and supply of THC ("tetrahydrocannabinol") - dominant strains of medical cannabis flowers, destined for the growing medical cannabis markets across Europe. Hellenic Dynamics' core strategy is to develop and operate its 40,000 square metre active cultivation licence from its 195,506 square metre facility located near Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. In full production, Hellenic Dynamics is capable of producing over 54,000 kg of dried flowers per annum.

Hellenic Dynamics will take advantage of its relatively low cost base resulting from a comparatively low cost of power, having its own running water supply and the labour rates for skilled and semi-skilled labour in Northern Greece.

25 European countries now allow medical cannabis via prescription and the European cannabis market is expected to reach €43.3 billion per annum by 2027. Sales of Hellenic Dynamics' dried THC-dominant cannabis flowers and extracts are initially intended for export into Europe's largest market - Germany, in addition to other European markets including domestically in Greece.

As the first medical cannabis cultivator to obtain a listing on the main market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange, Hellenic is significantly different to the number of CBD (Cannabidiol) related companies that have appeared over the recent years. Hellenic Dynamics cultivates THC-dominant medical cannabis flowers. THC-dominant medical cannabis products are only available via a medical prescription. Medicinal cannabis has been approved for use both in the United Kingdom and Germany, plus 23 other European countries, for conditions including but not limited to  chronic pain, intractable chemotherapy-related nausea, anxiety, insomnia, Tourette's syndrome, substance use disorder, multiple sclerosis, IBS, spinal cord treatment, lack of appetite due to HIV/AIDS, cachexia, anorexia and glaucoma.
