The Two-Time Super Bowl Champion and entrepreneur will help lead the company investments in medicinal-use cannabis and other emerging technologies

CapStone Holdings Inc, a business incubator and investment group – welcomes former 15-year NFL veteran Charlie Batch as its Senior Vice President of Strategic Investments. Batch will help CapStone grow its investment portfolio and partnerships in the emerging medical marijuana and technology-focused industries.

Most known for his tenure as a quarterback for the Detroit Lions and Pittsburgh Steelers; post-retirement, Batch is an investor, entrepreneur, community leader, and philanthropist in the Pittsburgh area.

“We are excited to have Charlie join our team,” said Keith J. Stone, Chairman & Founder of CapStone Holdings Inc. “In addition to an outstanding football career, Charlie’s business acumen fits CapStone’s investment philosophy wonderfully. His impact will be shown quickly and will help us continue to grow our investments and footprint in a variety of industries.”

In 2020, CapStone Holdings invested in Curaleaf and Ilera Healthcare – a TerrAscend company, two leading international cannabis enterprises. In 2021, CapStone furthered its interest in the cannabis sector with an investment in The United Green, a national staffing agency with industry-specific workplace solutions for cannabis and hemp concentrated companies. CapStone will continue to focus on this industry as it relates to medical and healthcare.

Batch is a vocal advocate among former professional athletes in CBD and medicinal-use cannabis. Batch has helped lead change in professional sports around the stigma of cannabis-based pain treatment and its benefits, working with several cannabis ventures in the past years. He will lead investment strategies related to that field.

Hi everyone! Nice to e-meet you! Here are a few things you should know about me.


I am a conscientious, open minded, adaptable to new experiences and ambitious Business Development Manager with a Bachelor's Degree in Economics - Banking, Finance and Accountancy. Through my studies I've also obtained many naturopathic and nutrition degrees as well. Part-time jobs have added marketing, network marketing, event management and store management skills to my experience through my career.


Through my career I have also been a Hotel Manager and owned a Bar/Restaurant & Internet Cafe. My online marketing and social media interactivity experience was gained when me and my husband started a business with an online/organic webshop & healthy lifestyle consultancy.


I've improved my English at Cambridge Academy of English - 2003, in Cambridge. I live a conscious lifestyle, and try to protect the ecosystem. Animal lover and capable of helping others without judgement or negative reactions, this is thanked to my knowledge in holistic therapies and the naturopathy courses I've followed.


I cannot leave far my spiritual growth and the continuous development in alternative and holistic therapies, so I'm learning at Kyron School of New Consciousness, receiving a Bio Energo-therapist diploma.


Thanks to all my experiences I've decided to venture into publishing and writting, while also continuing to learn many new things daily. I hope you enjoy reading my hand picked PICANTE News and check back for my weekly articles. You can find my articles and news digests in the following categories:
