Ag-West Bio really helped in the sense that they provided guidance, they spend the time to get to know the company, and the leadership team. We developed a good relationship with them.
Jamie Bakos
Ag-West Bio was actually our first supporter in the province. We came to them for networking and advice. The initial interest from Ag-West Bio was a boost of confidence; it’s really helped us get a foothold in the province.

The financial help we received through Ag-West Bio Inc. in the early years opened so many doors for us, while the guidance and mentorship they provided was just as instrumental.

AWB’s financial assistance and support for me to attend a first class mentoring accelerator event helped to provide my business a lifeline when I needed it most…I don’t think I would be in business today if it wasn’t for AWB’s financial assistance and support.
