Investing In Europe’s Emerging Legal Cannabis Industry

The European continent is the most exciting region for the cannabis industry and policy right now, with several nations working to modernize their cannabis laws and regulations. The most noteworthy example is Germany, where lawmakers enacted the first provisions of a national adult-use legalization measure on April 1, 2024.

Adults in Germany can now cultivate up to three plants in their private residences in addition to being able to possess and consume cannabis for recreational purposes legally. Furthermore, adult consumers in Germany can join a growing list of adult-use cultivation associations.

Before Germany’s legalization, Malta and Luxembourg also adopted national recreational cannabis legalization measures. Regional adult-use cannabis commerce pilot trials are also operating in both the Netherlands and Switzerland. Policy modernization efforts are also gaining traction in other European nations such as in Slovenia and the Czech Republic.

A rise in opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors is paralleling the rise of policy modernization efforts in Europe. Things are moving quickly and it can be difficult to navigate the evolving landscape. Fortunately, there is an opportunity coming up next week in Munich that streamlines the process of identifying and networking with startups and investors.
