According to a report by Ameri Research Inc., the global legal cannabis market was valued at $14.3 billion in 2016 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 21.1% from 2017 to 2024. During the forecast period, the projected demand of cannabis will continue to rise for both recreational and medical use. Estimated global sales are expected to reach a value of $63.5 billion. The robust growth of the legal cannabis market is partially due to successful legalization and decriminalization campaigns across North America and Europe. Ameri Research also explained that due to the complex regulatory structure at state and federal levels, the full potential of the market is not yet realized.

If cannabis were to be adopted nationally, we would begin to see a trend of patients turning to medical cannabis as a substitute or complement to pharmaceuticals," said Giadha Aguirre De Carcer, CEO & Founder of New Frontier Data.
