An independent network of senior agribusiness leaders — embedded in the St. Louis 39 North AgTech ecosystem — helping AgTech companies navigate, execute, and grow.
Start with a Discovery Call →Four friction points show up in nearly every commercialization story.
AgTech startups navigate a complex web of investors, corporates, regulators, and distribution channels. Most founding teams are scientists — not commercial operators.
Large consulting firms price out early-stage companies and lack Midwest ag context. Their models weren't built for the speed and capital constraints of AgTech.
In ag, the right introduction at the right time changes outcomes. That network isn't on a website — it's earned over decades in the field, the co-op, and the boardroom.
Technical founders under-invest in messaging and brand. Poor investor traction, confused customers, and slow adoption follow — even when the technology is superior.
The right-sized firm for the challenge.
St. Louis / 39N ecosystem. Two degrees of separation from virtually every relevant Midwest ag player. Decades of active participation — not a pitch.
No junior associates. Every engagement is led by a practitioner with 15–25 years of hands-on ag experience. You get the partner, not the associate.
Independent model means we move at your pace. No billing bureaucracy, no scope creep, no retainer traps. Most engagements active within 1–2 weeks.
The story behind the name, who we are, and the St. Louis ecosystem that makes us possible.
