September 8, 2016 (Denver, CO) -- MassRoots, Inc. (OTCQB: MSRT ), one of the largest and fastest growing technology platforms for the cannabis industry, is pleased to announce Steve Markowitz has joined its Board of Advisors. From 1996 to November 2000, Mr. Markowitz served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MyPoints.com, Inc., leading its growth from zero to 16 million consumer members, scaling annual revenues to $64 million, and closing a $211 million secondary offering. Under Markowitz’s direction, MyPoints.com listed on Nasdaq in August 1999 and achieved a peak market value of $2.3 billion.
“For the past year, my singular investment focus has been the regulated cannabis industry in the United States and Canada. This is reported to be the fastest growing industry in North America, and it is clearly poised for hyper-growth,” Markowitz said. “MassRoots is well positioned as one of the leading consumer apps in the sector and has the opportunity to dominate the demand-side of the market. I subscribed to MassRoots’ secondary offering earlier this summer and am eager to leverage my background in consumer technology and loyalty programs to help take the company to the next level.”
