(“RDT” or the “Company”) (CSE: DOSE), a Canadian biotechnology company revolutionizing drug delivery through innovation, has entered into a strategic business development agreement with AB Strategic Ventures (“ABSV”) with the purpose of supporting relationship building with First Nations business enterprises through the fulfillment and sale of products made by Indigenous people to markets across Canada.

Working with First Nations in every province and territory of Canada, ABSV has worked with more than 100 Indigenous communities throughout Canada to support the development of their economies.

“RDT has demonstrated a commitment to champion Indigenous business enterprises and we’re pleased to assist them in bringing broad-scale awareness to First Nations across Canada,” said Arnold Bomberry of AB Strategic Ventures. “Inclusivity is a much-needed approach in today’s landscape and we look forward to the opportunities that bring communities together.”

Initial product collaboration will include both RDT and private label branded products in the lifestyle, health and wellness sectors, including vitamins, nutraceuticals and topicals.
