Company: Serene
Founders: Ed McIlroy, Co-Founder & CEO; London Adam Bray, Co-Founder & CPO
Hometown: London, UK
 
What is Serene?
Serene is an app based community where users find and share the best spots in nature that are made better with cannabis. Federal law prohibits the consumption of cannabis in public places. Sitting at home and smoking, eating or drinking cannabis products removes the enjoyment for a lot of users. Serene is a platform that will allow users to find the best spots in nature to visit whilst under the influence of cannabis. We aim to build a community that is focused entirely on ensuring people have a safe, legal and fun experience with cannabis.
