Hjelle Consulting Group

Hjelle Consulting Group (HCG) is a network of the leading regulatory affairs, regulatory science and product pipeline design experts in in the agricultural technology sector. Our goal is to provide our clients with a class of regulatory expertise and execution that has historically been reserved for only the largest multinational companies, and at a lower cost. The network is anchored by a core roster of former senior regulatory strategists, scientists and government affairs experts from the Monsanto Company, led by former Monsanto Regulatory Vice President Jerry Hjelle. This group brings a wealth of expertise on a wide array of products, both in the plant (including gene- edited products, biotech plants and food and feed ingredients) and on the plant (including agricultural chemistries, soil health, microbials, biologicals and biochemicals). We take pride in disrupting the agtech regulatory food chain, affording clients a "Regulatory on Demand" approach that provides strategic and execution support when needed and allows for the deferral of the costly, time-consuming process of recruiting, training, and managing regulatory resources in-house. Our value extends beyond the services we provide; our ongoing involvement in client product pipelines gives investors extra confidence that our clients' products are backed by first-class strategic design, exceptional data and efficient use of capital in the regulatory function.
