By unlocking our business model to share in the future growth, we overcome the traditional barriers and for the first time can work in a true sense of partnership to protect, invest and grow the value of our clients″ says Stephen Pearce, Chairman of Agbioscout. ″We are also adding significant experience to our board and technical advisory groups to provide mentoring and expertise to these companies to help them succeed.″

Starting in October, with the official launch at World Agritech, agritech entrepreneurs are encouraged to reach out to Accumont Advisors to explore how they can benefit from its expertise, expanded services and new business model.

″To help on-board early-stage companies and let them know their readiness for investment, we have developed a benchmarking tool called the Investment Readiness Evaluation which assesses nine key investment criteria that investors use in their screening. This allows us and the entrepreneurs to understand where they are in the growth journey. We have seen this tool make a significant difference to the focus and development of teams and tech companies,″ said Paul Streater, Chief Operating Officer of Agbioscout.
