Avivagen Inc. (TSXV:VIV) (“Avivagen”) is pleased to announce that it presented at the 5th Annual Torrey Hills Capital Emerging Growth Conference on November 21, 2019.
Founded in 1998 and headquartered in Rancho Santa Fe, California, Torrey Hills Capital specializes in the development and marketing of emerging growth companies which trade in the United States (NYSE, AMEX, and OTC) and in Canada (TSX, TSX-V, and CNQ). The conference provides a great opportunity for small and microcap companies to meet one-on-one with investment professionals and consists entirely of all-day one-on-one meetings between issuers and investors followed by additional, dedicated networking opportunities.
A unique feature of the conference is its partnership with Biopub https://biopubkss.com/. BioPub is a subscription website presenting small-cap biotech special situation investing opportunities curated by an NIH-trained MD, PhD, former medicine professor and clinical triallist and his team. The site takes a boots-on-the-ground approach with editors spending most of the year on the road, and refrains from presenting companies as investing ideas until editors have interviewed management face-to-face and visited the company.

About OxC-beta™ Technology and OxC-beta™ Livestock
Avivagen’s OxC-beta™ technology is derived from Avivagen discoveries about carotenoids, compounds that give certain fruits and vegetables their bright colours, and is a non-antibiotic means of maintaining optimal health and growth. OxC-beta™ Livestock is a proprietary product shown to be effective and economic as an alternative to the antibiotics commonly added to livestock feeds. OxC-beta™ Livestock is currently available for sale in the Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand, New Zealand, Mexico and the U.S.
Avivagen’s OxC-beta™ Livestock product is safe, effective and could fulfill the global mandate to remove all in-feed antibiotics as growth promoters. Numerous international livestock trials with poultry and swine using OxC-beta™ Livestock have proven that the product performs as well as, and, sometimes, in some aspects, better than in-feed antibiotics.
