Humans build companies and humans determine the success or failure of aspiration. We employ hands on work (this doesn’t mean time-wasting zoom meetings). We get on the plane and work out of your office. We break bread and share wine. We share the late nights and early mornings. We are your sounding board and supporters. Due diligence means investing time and support to flush out strategy, risk analysis, and determine how the team can best catalyse efforts. Successful founders know that the support of the few key individuals is the driving force that lifts ventures from struggle to flow. We are the support and we bring with us big dreams and big reach. .

Agrarius is the world’s first technology that communicates directly with plants to increase growth and resilience. These signals are dispersed through the mycelial network, triggering an adaptive response in nearby plants. Humanity can access the internet of the earth for the first time. We can now speak to plants. We can tell them how to grow. The implications are historic.
