Risk disclosures

Participating in early-stage science carries real risk. These are the things we want you to understand before you take part.

Research support is not an investment

Champion contributions support a student's approved educational and research expenses. They are not a purchase of equity, a loan, or a guaranteed financial product.

IPS distributions are contingent

Innovation Participation Shares (IPS) distributions occur only if the designated innovation generates qualifying revenue under the applicable IPS agreement, and are limited by the distribution cap and five-year term. A Champion contribution does not guarantee any distribution or the return of the contribution.

Most early-stage research does not commercialize

Scientific research frequently produces negative or inconclusive results. A project may be discontinued at any stage. You should be prepared for the possibility that a project you support never produces a product.

Reserve is a pre-purchase, not a security

Reserving a product is an early-access pre-purchase. Delivery timelines are estimates and may change as manufacturing and regulatory steps are completed.

Founder's Elite may involve regulated activity

Depending on its final structure, Founder's Elite may involve regulated investment activity. Eligibility requirements, disclosures, escrow arrangements, and investment mechanics will be finalized with securities counsel before any live funds are accepted. Nothing on this site is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security.

Scientific claims and certification

Information about ingredients and research reflects the current state of a project's evidence. Where evidence is incomplete, we say so. AABA Verified certification assesses documentation and process; it is not a medical, therapeutic, or regulatory approval.

Nothing here is advice

Nothing on this site constitutes investment, legal, tax, or medical advice. Consider seeking independent professional advice before participating.
