Washington, Nov. 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Frontier Data, the leading provider of data, analytics and business intelligence in the cannabis industry, and MassRoots, Inc. (OTCQB: MSRT), the largest social media platform in the cannabis space worldwide, have partnered to elevate digital marketing practices and better understand social consumer behavior at a pivotal time in the cannabis industry.

MassRoots is the largest social media platform dedicated to cannabis in the world, with incredible engagement from its members, creating a unique opportunity to learn from them and educate brands, investors, and mature markets entering the cannabis arena,” said Giadha Aguirre De Carcer, CEO and founder New Frontier Data.

“This past year at MassRoots we have been focused on taking our amazing cannabis community to the next level with a new leadership team and its vision to take the company beyond the social media platform and this partnership with New Frontier Data will allow us to achieve that. This industry has evolved from a movement into a thriving market that is hungry for data to serve its shareholders and educate consumers. Only through the data analytics provided by New Frontier Data and our understanding of our community can we move this emerging market and pioneering platform forward,” Scott Kveton CEO MassRoots.

New Frontier Data’s data engine will enable MassRoots to aggregate, analyze and monetize the large volume of consumer engagement data being collected by the MassRoots mobile application and web portal. By combining MassRoots consumer data with New Frontier Data’s Big Data engine and market leading industry analytics, we will then be able to generate greater insights into the 3 million users in the MassRoots community and establish correlations between their interests and interactions across multiple channels.
