Knowbella Tech Announces Intent to Conduct First Tier 2 Regulation A+ Initial Coin Offering (ICO)

The net proceeds of this offering will be used primarily to launch a blockchain-enabled open science collaboration platform that will unlock up to $4 trillion of orphaned and dormant intellectual property. Collaborating scientists will be rewarded Helix™, “The Currency of Science™” tokens resulting from the ICO for conducting research on the Knowbella Tech platform.

Utilizing Reg. A+, Knowbella Tech plans to make its Helix tokens available to anyone interested in participating in the venture, not just accredited investors. Typically, in the USA, only accredited investors qualify to invest in early stage companies. Knowbella Tech intends to provide non-accredited investors the opportunity to participate.

"Reg. A+ allows us to advertise and reach out to everyone who may have an interest in our scientific platform and business," Pohlkamp said. "It is similar to a pre-sale or perk crowdfunding campaign offered on platforms like Kickstarter® or Indiegogo®, but also allows us to offer participants equity in our Company in the form of Helix tokens, similar to cryptocurrencies."

Reg. A+ allows issuers to raise up to US$50 million in a 12-month period. Investors are not required to be accredited, but must receive an offering circular that has been qualified by the SEC.

Knowbella has engaged Keating Muething & Klekamp PLL as its legal advisors for the offering.

Knowbella plans to “test the waters” to gauge market demand for its proposed Reg. A+ offering prior to qualification of its offering statement by the SEC. No money or other consideration is being solicited, and if sent in response to any solicitation, it will not be accepted. No offer to buy the securities can be accepted and no part of the purchase price can be received until an offering statement on SEC Form 1-A is qualified, and any such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time before notice of its acceptance is given after the qualification date. Any person's indication of interest involves no obligation or commitment of any kind.
