Counter-Strike meets cannabis: BIG and GreenMedical launch partnership
2025-09-04 | Berlin International Gaming (BIG) and GreenMedical, a subsidiary of the CKM Group, have launched a partnership to raise awareness about medical cannabis and digital health services, according to a CKM Group press release. The aim is to reduce prejudice, convey basic facts, and facilitate access to telemedicine-supported therapies. GreenMedical offers digital, physician-supervised care including prescription issuance and access to high-quality cannabis, particularly for patients in rural areas.
As part of the cooperation, GreenMedical will primarily appear with BIG’s Counter-Strike team (BIG is a Berlin e-sports team; Counter-Strike is an online e-sports shooter) and inform the young, digitally savvy target group about the difference between black market products and approved medicines through giveaways, branding, and community activations. Daniel Finkler, CEO of BIG, emphasized that the commitment is socially relevant and offers opportunities for responsible education. With the partnership, the companies are responding to the growing German market volume for medical cannabis, which has increased significantly since partial legalization in 2024.
