OpenCann's mission centers on accelerating the development of new cannabis-based therapeutics, with a strong belief in the medicinal potential of cannabis when used intentionally. It seeks to find a balance between the privatization of intellectual property for funding research and the proliferation of common knowledge about cannabis as a public good. This is facilitated through a community-governed, open-source data marketplace designed to encourage knowledge sharing and increase data availability across the entire cannabis value chain. This approach aims to support financial inclusion by making data and research more accessible, promote education by disseminating knowledge about cannabis, and create social impact by aiming to improve societal health and access to information. The primary audience includes regulators, researchers, clinicians, cultivators, and consumers
