MacGregor is the first addition to the board since Burcon’s acquisition of BMW Canola, now Burcon NutraScience (MB) Corp., in October 1999. He has over 23 years of investment banking and financial management experience. Currently he is president of Gradon Enterprises.


Previously MacGregor was a partner of Polar Capital Corporation, a Toronto-based investment partnership firm.
