Benson Hill is a food technology company with a mission to deliver food made better from the beginning – working to develop and commercialize food and ingredients that are more nutritious, better tasting, more sustainable, and more affordable. As the company sought to expand globally, raising additional capital from venture investors was necessary to fund the expansion. 

The only catch? It was 2020, and all travel had halted due to the coronavirus. In constant collaboration with the Benson Hill team, we captured and produced a video as the centerpiece of investor communications to synthesize the company’s vision, core technology, and market focus so the investment community could get an immediate sense of where their investment dollars would flow. 

These efforts resulted in Benson Hill closing a $150M Series D fundraising round in record time, 100% virtually, with no investors having to get on planes or management having to do a traditional roadshow. Talk about the power of building and presenting a powerful story.
