The current board for Champignon Brands consists of Dr Roger McIntyre, chair and CEO; Bill Wilkerson, vice-chair; Matt Fish, president and secretary; and Jerry Habuda. Former director Gareth Birdsall has resigned effective November 23.
Champignon Brands is emerging as a leader in the burgeoning field of psychedelic medicine by pursuing the development and commercialization of rapid onset treatments capable of improving health outcomes, such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as substance and alcohol use disorders.
As one of the first psychedelic companies to go public, its network of ketamine clinics complements its sharp focus on research and development.
Its strategic approach establishes a differentiated platform with operating treatment clinics in the US and Canada that also facilitate research and development of a wide range of therapeutic and medical applications of psilocybin, the psychoactive ingredient in mushrooms.
