Cannabis regulation is no longer failing for want of legal permission. It is failing for want of shared standards, coordinated oversight and effective implementation.

That is the central finding of the 2026 Global Cannabis Regulatory Summit White Paper, a 100-page report co-published by Artemis Growth Partners and Prohibition Partners.

Drawing on April's Summit in London, which brought together participants from nearly 30 countries and 20 regulatory jurisdictions, the paper turns those conversations into a practical agenda for global harmonisation.

Key findings:
โ†’ Fragmented standards are holding markets back
โ†’ Confidence depends on transparent oversight and reliable data
โ†’ Trust is central, from regulators to patients
โ†’ Standards, responsibility and alignment must work together

The sector's next decade will be defined not at the ballot box, but by how well it delivers on implementation. Building on the 2025 White Paper from Washington, D.C., the report also sets out the priorities shaping the 2027 Summit in Zรผrich.

European Cannabis Insights 2026 is out now.

Our first industry report from Business of Cannabis, powered by Prohibition Partners' market data, captures the presentations, debates and expert insights from the European Cannabis Insights Summit in Berlin this June.

The thesis: Europe's medical cannabis market has built its foundations. The winners of the next phase will be decided less by regulation and more by the operational and structural choices operators make over the next two to three years.
Inside the report:

๐Ÿ”— Germany's market matures to โ‰ˆโ‚ฌ1.15bn in 2026, projected to reach โ‚ฌ1.4-1.6bn by 2030, with growth now driven by volume rather than price ๐Ÿ”— Medical cannabis imports up 176% in 2025 as pharmacy flower prices fall 46%
๐Ÿ”— Prescription volumes up 3,300% since CanG reclassification ๐Ÿ”— Poland's 2024 telemedicine ban and recovery, the clearest case study of regulatory risk in Europe
๐Ÿ”— The UK and France markets, and the post-summit analysis of Germany's July 2026 reimbursement change

Thank you to our partners who made this report possible: Bloomwell, alephSana, Cannavigia, Sanity Group, Aurora and Americana Communications.
