The law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors make an informed decision.
If you are a wholesale investor under the definition of that term in clause 3 of Part 1 Schedule 1 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, the usual rules do not apply to offers of financial products made to you. As a result, you may not receive a complete and balanced set of information.
You will also have fewer other legal protections for these investments. Ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing yourself.

Cropsy Technologies is developing a solution that allows high-value enterprise fruit growers to monitor every plant in their crop at scale, starting with vineyards (video). Cropsy’s proprietary AI-enable hardware is a tractor add-on, which profiles every vine all year round while growers do their daily operations. This creates a true digital twin of the crop, which growers can view on Cropsy’s software platform, to understand the entire crop and how it changes over time.
Current methods to measure the state of vineyards and orchards are completely manual, where a handful of workers are tasked with measuring thousands of hectares. In fact, less than 1% of a vineyard is actually measured. Important and costly crop care decisions are based on this tiny, infrequently checked sample.
Each Cropsy system profiles thousands of vines per day, and millions of vines in total to date. These insights enable growers to make the best possible vineyard management decisions, from targeting crop protection products with precise disease location information in the summer, to finding missing/dead/dying vines for re-planting in the winter, and everything in between. Cropsy’s mission is to empower growers with this ground-breaking technology to transform how the world grows fruit for people and planet.
Cropsy has won marquee industry clients including winemakers such as Pernod Ricard, Indevin, and Cloudy Bay.
