PAST EVENTS In addition to our huge Virtual Psychedelic Conference where 1,100 experts gathered to hear 104 speakers over 2 days, we have held several investment summits across Europe, including London, Malta and Luxembourg. We have hosted more thousands of investors and international cannabis and psychedelics companies. Attendees included UHNWIs, Family Offices, and VCs with a combined AUM of €15bn+. BEXSON BIOMEDICAL - LEAD SPONSOR Bexson Biomedical is developing a non-opioid, ketamine therapy for pain management and mental health disorders. The company’s lead indication is post-operative pain, a $12 billion market in the US alone, and a leading driver for opioid addiction. Bexson’s value proposition is that home use of its BB106 low-dose ketamine therapy will be a game changer for both chronic and acute pain. The company is forming a broad IP portfolio to secure exclusivity for therapeutic use, while also establishing a platform that could be utilized for a variety of medical indications. Based on the 50+ years of literature data illustrating ketamine’s safety and efficacy, Bexson has a dramatically de-risked pathway to approval compared to companies developing New Chemical Entities or psychedelics with significant use restrictions. The company was co-founded by CEO Gregg Peterson, a veteran of multiple biopharma companies with successful exits, and CSO Jeffrey Becker, MD, a globally recognized expert on the clinical use of ketamine. The Conscious Fund invests in early stage ventures in plant powered medicine. We are helping the psychedelic medicine space to grow ethically and sustainably through our work with Seed to Series A companies.
