President Pedro Méndez of Premier Graphene Inc. (BIEI) and HGI Industrial Technologies - Presenters at the International Cannabis & Industrial Hemp Forum

The co-presenters, in coordination with Premier Graphene Inc. and HGI Industrial Technologies, uniquely position BIEI for success


MEXICO CITY, Dec. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- President Pedro Méndez, representing Premier Graphene Inc. (OTC: BIEI) (“Premier”) and HGI Industrial Technologies, in an international forum focused on the future of cannabis, industrial hemp, and advanced materials science in Mexico. The event was sponsored by the Carlos Hank González Foundation, bringing together innovators and policymakers from the United States, Mexico, and Argentina.

The consequent opportunities abound, particularly with Premier’s relationship with and license access from Santa Rosa Green Seeds, and the coveted, official importing license from COFEPRIS, Mexico’s Federal Commission against sanitary risk (Mexico’s FDA). This nearly exclusive licensure accomplishes a major regulatory milestone, securing approval to commence importation, registration, and commercialization of CBD, CBG, and other cannabinoid products. Indeed, this licensure was particularly attractive to other presenters including the renowned Dr. Stuart Titus, Mark Vouzzo and Mexican Congresswoman Ana Erika Santana.

Dr. Stuart Titus is the former CEO of Medical Marijuana Inc. Mark Vouzzo represented PÜRBLEND Science, a San Diego–based extraction company.

Ana Erika Santana, Esq. served as local counsel to Premier, prior to becoming a Congresswoman in Mexico, serving several different districts.

During his remarks, Dr. Stuart Titus shared a powerful perspective on the intersection of cannabinoids, bioelectric medicine, and next-generation materials, and stated:

  • Cannabinoids are not just biochemical compounds — they are electrical regulators.
  • CBD and other cannabinoids stabilize ion channels, restore mitochondrial membrane potential, and reduce oxidative ‘signal noise,’ enhancing the body’s natural conductivity and cellular communication. The Endocannabinoid System functions as the body’s electrical control network, coordinating neuron firing, immune signaling, and preventing electrical overload.
  • Cancer, at its core, is an electrical disorder — cells with broken membrane potentials, chaotic calcium signaling, and disrupted bioelectric communication. Cannabinoids interrupt this abnormal circuitry: they normalize voltage behavior, re-activate apoptotic electrical signals, block tumor communication pathways, and stop cancer proliferation in its tracks.
  • Together with graphene — a material that enhances conductivity, sensing precision, and cellular targeting — cannabinoids represent a new frontier of bioelectric medicine, where restoring healthy electrical signaling becomes the key to healing.

President Pedro Méndez presented new advances in industrial hemp composites, graphene-enhanced personal protection, and medical applications using CBD-doped graphene as a targeted drug-delivery system capable of directing medication precisely toward tumors or diseased cells. These innovations position HGI and Premier Graphene at the cutting edge of biotechnology, materials science, and medical engineering. They also uniquely position Premier, particularly with its contracts with Santa Rosa Green Seeds.

The forum also addressed the landscape of federal cannabis legalization in Mexico. HGI Industrial Technologies was recognized for being among the first companies in Mexico to obtain the coveted Amparo, allowing it to legally initiate compliant operations after overcoming significant regulatory hurdles.

“Premier Graphene Inc. and HGI Industrial Technologies wish to thank event organizer Dr. Barbosa, and Aurely Khata for extending their invitation to us as well as the president of Partido Encuentro Solidario (PES) Cesar Hank Inzunza for promoting this very important subject. With President Donald J Trumps new reclassification of Cannabis to level 3, the medical science, research and development with cannabis will increase thus helping ordinary people with different ailments,” states Pedro Mendez.

On Dec. 18, President Donald Trump signed an executive order making the most substantial changes to United States’ marijuana policy since 1970. Trump ordered the government to stop classifying marijuana as a Schedule I drug, a designation that includes the most dangerous substances including heroin, LSD and ecstasy.

This milestone event, particularly when coupled with this new executive order may well catapult HGI Industrial Technologies and Premier Graphene Inc. into expanded leadership, driving innovation across industrial hemp, medical technology, advanced materials, and graphene-based systems.

Independent of the foregoing, Premier anticipates the previously announced government contract within the next 30 days.
