ECI Intelligence

The industry needs to know where it stands

Primary research, regulatory intelligence and compliance benchmarking for operators, investors and policy stakeholders across Europe.

Why cannabis compliance intelligence matters

The data that drives better decisions

European cannabis regulation is moving faster than most operators can track. GMP inspection activity is increasing across Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. Regulatory frameworks are being updated in Spain, France and Belgium. New markets are opening in Eastern Europe. The operators who navigate this environment successfully are the ones who understand it — not the ones reacting to it.

ECI Intelligence exists to give cannabis manufacturers, investors, regulators and compliance professionals the structured, evidence-based regulatory intelligence they need to make better decisions. The industry survey generates the primary data. The regulatory map provides the jurisdictional context. The annual report synthesises both into a picture of where the European cannabis sector stands — and where it is going.

Whether you are assessing a new market, benchmarking your GMP readiness against the sector, or advising a board on regulatory investment — ECI Intelligence is the knowledge layer that makes those conversations evidence-based.
