Global Chamber® Export-Import Forum: Exporting Cannabis Expertise - September 25, 2025

🌍 Global Chamber® Export-Import Forum: Navigating Cannabis Export Compliance The Global Chamber® Export-Import Forum, moderated by Anita Rodal, explored the legal and regulatory challenges of exporting services in the cannabis industry. International attorney Casey Branch led the discussion, sharing decades of experience in alcohol and cannabis law and explaining how companies can legally export expertise, consulting, IP, and technology — even when product exports remain prohibited under U.S. federal law. 💡 Key Highlights: Service Exports Over Products: Casey explained how firms navigate restrictions by exporting intellectual property, consulting, and licensing services, similar to other regulated sectors. International Legal Complexity: The session addressed compliance with the 1988 Vienna Convention, local laws, and cross-border contracts — stressing the importance of due diligence and legal counsel. Trade Agreements and Risk: Discussion covered the role of international trade frameworks in supporting service exports, as well as the risks of cross-border payments, sanctions, and translation issues. Future of Cannabis Trade: While physical exports face global regulatory barriers, service-based exports are expected to dominate. Potential federal rescheduling in the U.S. could reshape the market and attract major pharmaceutical players. Global Insights: Attendees shared updates on cannabis regulations across the U.S., Brazil, Ghana, and the EU, highlighting varying levels of legalization and medical use policies. 🚀 Next Steps: Casey Branch to share a list of countries with exceptions to the Vienna Convention for cannabis-related activities. Members exploring cannabis-related business to consult legal experts before cross-border ventures. Anita Rodal to announce the next Export-Import Forum topic and speaker in early October. Members to visit the Global Chamber® events calendar for upcoming international trade webinars. 🌱 Key Takeaway: As regulations evolve, service exports — not physical trade — may drive the global cannabis economy, opening new opportunities for compliance-savvy businesses to expand internationally. 🌐 About Global Chamber® Global Chamber® is a thriving worldwide community that connects executives, innovators, and thought leaders in 605 metro regions across 195 countries.
