The CBD Global Summit will deliver insights on the regulation, science and consumer drivers impacting operators in the CBD space. The two-day conference seeks to identify innovation opportunities and demystify a sector that continues to court considerable controversy.
Exploring the frontiers of cannabinoid science, we will investigate how this can be applied in the commercial world by food, nutraceutical and cosmetic players. We will also be asking how these insights can be leveraged by manufacturers and retailers to drive customer loyalty by staying ahead of the CBD curve.
The event is brought to you by the teams behind FoodNavigator, The Grocer, NutraIngredients and CosmeticsDesign. A raft of big-name firms, innovative start-ups, scientific pioneers and regulatory experts will be speaking, sponsoring and attending the Summit.

Breaking news: Put your questions to the FSA
In a bid to help industry map-out a path to compliance, we can also reveal that a representative from the UK’s Food Standards Agency (FSA) will be joining the CBD Global Summit.
The FSA will detail its position on CBD as a Novel Food ingredient and explain what steps it requires the industry to take. A ‘fireside chat’ style segment will give the audience the opportunity to put their questions directly to the FSA.
So if you have any concerns over the regulatory landscape or are uncertain over what is required from businesses operating in the UK, now is your chance to gain full clarity.
