As much as I'd like to give a definitive answer to that question; I really just don't know. After browsing RBSMs website it looks as though they would be a welcome asset if they decided to apply for an uplist.
RBSM helps public companies with financial statement audits, review of form 10k filings, mergers and acquisitions, amongst a suite of other services.
I'm not sure that an uplisting makes a lot of sense at this stage for a company like BION. My guess is, if there is not an uplist by the time ground breaks on the first plant in Taylor, then I suspect an uplist may happen near plant 1 completion. I believe what most investors want to see is: can not only BION succeed in getting it's inaugural plant to completion, but are it's products viable?
For most longs like myself, just wanting to see all 3 phases complete for EPC makes us happy because we feel we've been here from the beginning. We are the early adopters and we feel ownership of a new product and technology. I suspect though the broader market want's more substance and a reliable product before it decides to invest in this technology.
1. EPC completion = early adopters are happy / outside watchers still wonder what EPC is.
2. Plant 1 construction begins = early adopters ecstatic / outside watchers say: does company have the will to follow through completion given the human resource/legal/environmental landscape challenges?
3. Plant 1 construction complete = early adopters proud / outside watchers say: Well now that plant is complete, is technology proven? Will product meet standards set out at beginning of the venture? Can you deliver a profit? Is the company viable?
4. If landmarks are met I can see an uplist very quickly to OTC.QB or OTC.QX possibly even Nasdaq if things go according to plan.
