Did you know that retail sales of CBD in the UK are set to reach $1billion this year? This makes it comfortably the second largest market for consumer cannabinoids worldwide, only eclipsed by the US.
In this special event, hosted by The Association for the Cannabinoid Industry (ACI), provided businesses with the essential information they require to enter the UK market.
ACI is the UK’s premier organisation supporting legally regulated cannabinoid companies in the UK. Over the course of the last year our team of unrivaled experts and partners have helped businesses like yours from the US, Canada, the EU, South America and Australia to navigate the complex regulatory and logistical challenges of entering the UK market.
On 28th September we hosted a ‘hybrid’ event – UK-CBD – Accessing the Billion Dollar British Cannabinoid Market – at the RSA in London.
