HIPOINT AG Corp. Earns Spot in SVG Ventures|THRIVE II Canada Accelerator Program
LOCATION, Vancouver DATE: February 1st 2023 HiPoint AG has earned a coveted spot in the highly competitive SVG Ventures|THRIVE II Canada Accelerator Program. 15 companies from across Canada make up the cohort which kicks off in Silicon Valley in March.
The THRIVE II Canada Cohort is the second cohort of the program that supports companies with novel technologies in the agrifood space. Over the course of the three-month program, HiPoint AG will refine our go-to-market strategy, connect live with investors and mentors in Silicon Valley and Canada, and build a foundation for scalable growth.
HiPoint AG was selected for our potential to disrupt traditional farming practices, promote industry sustainability and reduce environmental impact while giving farmers the tools to increase yields and productivity.
HiPoint Agro Bedding Corp is a closed-loop environmental recycling company with a zero-waste mandate being the first to solve the horse stall residual waste crisis while positively impacting non-point source pollution & global warming in a multibillion-dollar industry. Stall residuals have become a wastestream that is being inadequately and illegally disposed of at a high cost to many counties' agricultural lands, air, and water habitat. HiPoint re-purposes high-quality byproducts through innovation, infusion technology and energy projects while reducing our industries' carbon footprint. Products include healthier hypo-allergenic wood shavings, biomass organic fertilizers and through R&D, biochar and syngas converted to hydrogen renewable fuel cells from a single wastestream. Our vision is to waste nothing and gain everything, building facilities in the heart of equestrian regions throughout North America and around the world.

Introduction
There are 52 Million horses globally โ 10 million in North America. Each
stabled horse creates 1 ton/month of waste, comprised of 70% wood
shavings and just 30% manure; conservatively, 15 Billion cubic feet of
wood is used globally in the horse industry each year.
Unlike AD in the dairy industry, horse waste is yet to find a secure
solution for disposal and reuse. The Industry is in a global crisis
creating millions of tons of unusable waste, and due to tightening
government regulations, the waste is being dumped, spread, or
composted illegally.
This inadequate disposal has led to nitrogen & phosphorous
overloading, polluting our waterways, destroying our fisheries, and
creating algae blooms. In addition, composting & spreading cause
nitrate-deficient soils and 1.4 million tons of Ch4 methane off-gassing
every year into the air we breathe.

Sustainability
ร By breaking down the complexity of a broken industry, implementing
ecological green technology and meeting policy change demands.
ร We can reduce pollution, improve waterways, help improve
regenerative agriculture and stop the spreading of waste-causing
nitrate-deficient soils.
ร We can manufacture safe, healthier, and better shavings and reduce
deforestation by 5 million cubic ft per year per facility.* (The Shire
5000 horses)
ร The HiPoint process offers a low-carbon economy by also creating
renewable fuels from a vastly overlooked polluting waste stream.
Our vision is to build self-sustaining centers of excellence to educate, administer
and grow a healthy planet.
We do this by recycling products through innovation in Agriculture Waste Management.
