September 10–11, 2026
Academia das Ciências de Lisboa, Portugal
Since 2018, PTMC – Portugal Medical Cannabis has established itself as a leading platform for knowledge exchange, critical discussion and high-level networking in the global medicinal cannabis sector.
In 2026, PTMC returns for its 8th edition in a new and emblematic venue — the Academy of Sciences of Lisbon — reinforcing its commitment to scientific rigor, informed debate and meaningful collaboration.
Taking place on September 10 and 11, PTMC 2026 will once again bring together a curated audience of experts, policymakers, industry leaders and innovators.
With a deliberately intimate format, limited to 250 participants, PTMC fosters an environment where conversations go deeper, connections are stronger and ideas translate into real-world impact.
PTMC 2026 is designed for those who are not just following the evolution of medicinal cannabis, but actively shaping it.
Portugal continues to play a pivotal role in the global medicinal cannabis landscape.
Since legalization in 2018, the country has evolved into one of Europe’s most strategic hubs for cultivation, research and export, attracting international investment and positioning itself at the intersection of pharmaceutical standards and agricultural excellence. Yet, the rapid expansion of the sector brings increasing complexity.
Regulatory frameworks continue to evolve, patient access remains uneven and global competition is intensifying. At the same time, scientific research is advancing, opening new possibilities for cannabinoid-based therapies and product development.
PTMC 2026 provides a space to critically explore these dynamics. Set within the historic Academy of Sciences of Lisbon, this year’s edition places an even stronger emphasis on science, evidence-based approaches and cross-disciplinary dialogue, connecting the worlds of research, regulation and industry.
PTMC is where informed conversations happen. PTMC is where decisions take shape.
