What Our Clients Say About Catalyst BC
Latest Cannabis Industry Insights and News
Missouri Cannabis Licensing & Business Opportunities 2026
Missouri has established itself as the premier success story for cannabis in the Midwest, evolving from a standard medical regime to a high-volume adult-use market that exceeded $1.52 billion in annual sales in 2025. As the market enters the 2026–2027 biennium, the landscape is shifting from rapid expansion toward operational maturation and specialized entry.
North Carolina Cannabis Licensing & Business Opportunities 2026
North Carolina remains one of the final significant jurisdictions in the United States without a comprehensive medical or adult-use cannabis program. However, the 2026–2027 biennium is projected to be the most consequential period in the state’s cannabis history. Driven by the formation of the North Carolina Advisory Council on Cannabis and an impending federal “hemp cliff,” the state is moving from a period of passive prohibition toward a structured, albeit highly restrictive, regulatory framework.
Nebraska Cannabis Licensing & Business Opportunities 2026
Nebraska is entering the 2026–2027 biennium at a historic crossroads. Following the 71% voter approval of Initiatives 437 and 438 in late 2024—the largest margin for a medical cannabis initiative in U.S. history—the state is currently standing up its first regulated medical infrastructure.
