VegTech™ Invest advises the VegTech™ Plant-based Innovation & Climate ETF, (EATV), which launched on December 28, 2021.  EATV invests in companies actively innovating with plants and plant-derived ingredients to create animal-free products for sustainable consumption to address climate change and food insecurity.

VegTech™ Invest has created and is leading a completely new impact asset class in the capital markets: Plant-based Innovation & Alternative Proteins.  The ETF provides exposure to the growing trend.

The firm also provides the VegTech™ Plant-based Innovation & Alternative Proteins Index, calculated and distributed by Morningstar, as a global benchmark that defines this new sector.

Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) are bought and sold through exchange trading at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the fund. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

The fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses must be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus and summary prospectus contain this and other important information about the investment company. It may be obtained by calling 1-424-237-8393, emailing [email protected], or visiting EATV.VegTechInvest.com. Read it carefully before investing.

Investing involves risk including the possible loss of principal. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

The fund is an actively managed ETF that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.

Foreign securities may be more volatile and less liquid than domestic (U.S.) securities, which could affect the Fund’s investments.

Stocks of companies with small and mid-market capitalizations involve a higher degree of risk than investments in the broad-based equities market.

The fund is non-diversified and may hold large positions in a small number of securities. A price change in any one of those securities may have a greater impact on the fund’s share price than if it were diversified.

The Fund is newly organized and has a limited operating history to judge.

EATV is distributed by Quasar Distributors, LLC.
