Thanks @tossydog
Having just read a little on Susquehanna International Group (SIG)
> I could very easily imagine Joel being contacted by Susquehanna as a possible source of Venture Capital.
> Susquehanna appears to have very very deep pockets.
> Susquehanna's co-founder Jess Yass is listed #33 (of the world's richest people) on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index
https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profiles/jeffrey-s-yass/?leadSource=uverify%20wall
> Yass's success has come from backing winners.
At age 63, Yass has built Susquehanna into a global giant without taking a penny of outside capital.
Today, Susquehanna commands nearly 10% of the market making volume in exchange-traded funds, moving over 130 million shares daily in 50 countries around the world. It’s also regularly among the top-five market makers in U.S. stocks traded by retail brokers.
Yass has used Susquehanna’s trading profits to invest in early-stage growth companies around the world, like TikTok parent company ByteDance, the world’s most valuable private company. His firm is now among the 20 largest investors in venture capital-backed companies in the world, according to some estimates, owning tens of billions worth of investments spread across China, Israel and the United States and large stakes in tech companies like Agora Inc. in China, and Credit Karma and Payoneer in the United States. ( and now a small stake in Incannex )
I have just read some testimonials from other Growth Companies that have partnered with SIG
"Susquehanna Growth Equity is a unique private equity partner because they approach investments with a long time horizon. As an entrepreneur, you may be impatient and aim to grow aggressively in a very short span of time. Knowing that you have an investment partner with uncommon flexibility gives you the same reassurance as a scuba diver who has oxygen tanks in reserve even though they don’t expect to use them. It keeps you relaxed, and focused and helps execute better."

This rings true when Joel commented to @tossydog that
"adding an inbound institutional investor to the register that wants more and will support the business going forward"
Venture Capital has a way of finding unique early-stage Growth opportunities, and somehow Susquehanna Growth Equity found Incannex.
> It's actually an opportunistic moment considering the news" President Joe Biden turns the Medical Marijuana Research Bill into law, changing how American scientists can do research on marijuana.The White House announced on Friday that President Biden signed the Medical Marijuana and Cannabidiol Research Expansion Act, "which establishes a new registration process for conducting research on marijuana and for manufacturing marijuana products for research purposes and drug development."

> Could the interest in Incannex come from IHL owning one of the world's largest IP portfolios? I am sure Susquehanna's due diligence into IHL would not have missed that fact.
