Germany plans to legalize cannabis for adult use from April 1, 2024. This historic policy change heralds a new era for Europe's emerging cannabis industry, led by Germany. Several other European countries plan to modernize their cannabis policies once Germany's policy changes take effect.
The timing couldn't be more perfect as the International Cannabis Business Conference (ICBC) returns to Berlin on April 16-17 at the iconic Estrel Berlin Hotel. ICBC Berlin is the conference series' flagship B2B event and trade show, serving as Europe's largest and longest-running cannabis B2B conference. In addition to the B2B event, the International Cannabis Business Conference will also co-host the Talman Global Investment Forum in Berlin on April 15th.
The emerging legal cannabis industry is becoming a global phenomenon, with more countries than ever before modernizing their cannabis policies to allow legal cannabis research and commerce. The spread of policy reforms has created significant opportunities at the international level for cannabis entrepreneurs, investors, and industry service providers.
Euromonitor International estimates that the global emerging cannabis industry is currently worth €51.4 billion and will exceed €60 billion by 2025. Germany's cannabis industry is currently estimated to be worth around 1.2 billion euros. With legalization on the horizon, that number is likely to increase significantly in the coming years.
The legal industry no longer operates in regional silos, and a major challenge currently facing the emerging international cannabis industry is the difficulty in effectively networking with people around the world. The International Cannabis Business Conference and Talman Global Investment Forum in Berlin is the perfect networking opportunity, held in the midst of European cannabis history being made.
The International Cannabis Business Conference is the leading Cannabis B2B event series on the planet, and to date Cannabis has been held in several countries on multiple continents. This event series is owned and operated by cannabis advocates who believe in celebrating cannabis culture in addition to providing world-class cannabis industry education and networking opportunities.
“Given the historical context, this year’s International Cannabis Business Conference in Berlin will be special for our team. Such a historic time for the emerging cannabis industry in Germany and Europe. We are thrilled to be able to provide attendees with world-class cannabis industry and policy education, networking and entertainment,” said Alex Rogers, founder of the International Cannabis Business Conference.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to gain a competitive advantage in the emerging international cannabis industry, and it's important that people get their ideas, products, and services in front of the right people at the right time. Bringing together executives, entrepreneurs, investors, policy makers and industry service providers from around the globe, Berlin's ICBC B2B trade show event is the perfect place to present your cannabis ideas to the global cannabis stage.

Held in Berlin on the eve of the International Cannabis Business Conference's flagship B2B event, the largest event of its kind in Europe, the Talmann Global Investment Forum will bring together true leaders from top sectors and companies in the emerging cannabis space.
The goal of this event is to foster meaningful networking, provide timely education, and stimulate potential deal flow among attendees. Emerging industry sectors will be the main focus of the event, with speakers discussing how they fit into the larger industrial ecosystem.

This will be a great networking opportunity for cannabis industry investors, entrepreneurs and industry service providers alike.”
