Biosphere I Agriculture and Supporting Infrastructure Climate Response Management, Inc. (BASIC-M) 

Seeks to support the growth of small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) active in the sustainable agriculture, animal health and biosciences, and supporting infrastructure sectors across the globe. Our management team seeks to build exceptional patient capital investment vehicles that link individual, industrial, and institutional investors, while developing indigenous human capital throughout the world. 

BASIC-M is headquartered in greater Kansas City, Missouri (USA), the global epicenter of animal health innovation, research, and manufacturing. Kansas City is an economic and entrepreneurial anchor of the twelve-state region of the American Midwest, and the nucleus of the KC Animal Health Corridor, an agglomeration of more than 220 animal health-related companies and investment funds employing over 20,000 people, and generating fully one-third of the global animal health industry\'s $19 billion in sales. What\'s more, Kansas City lies at the heart of one of the most agriculturally productive areas in the world. Surveyed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City-the Federal Reserve System\'s leader in agricultural and rural research-activity within the Midwestern agricultural sector is fueled by intensive training, capital investment, and use of biotechnology. Annually, the Midwest produces more than a quarter of the world\'s corn output, and more than one-third of its soybean crop; within 350 miles of the Corridor alone, are more than 45 percent of the fed cattle in the US, over 40 percent of US hogs, and 20 percent of US beef cows and calves.

  4. Proactively develop a comprehensive intellectual property portfolio and global IP licensing strateg
