Calocurb operates in the natural supplement part of the Life Sciences and Medical Technology sector. It specialises in appetite management, using a unique active ingredient sourced from New Zealand hops believed to be the only natural, non-prescriptive alternative to highly expensive prescription drugs to assist people with chronic and debilitating obesity. Calocurb was formed in 2017, and is classified as early stage, with its technology origins being from Plant and Food Research.

 

BIF will make a cash investment of $250,000. Following this transaction (and issue of additional units to fund the purchase), Calocurb will represent 1.7% of BIF’s investment portfolio of 32 companies, and with a net asset value of over $14.5 million.
