If we need a sponsorship to list, maybe from a Co. like Cowen, they may want to combine a listing with a raise if for no other reason than to collect a commission. Grease the wheels of commerce so to speak. So creating a US approved prospectus would get us that much closer, possibly. However I couldn't imagine that whatever info US regulators want could be that much differant than what we usually produce already so subject to a few tweeks it should be relatively easy to do as your post makes clear.
But still, why not just do it now ?
Anyway, thanks very much for the info, good to know.
Wondering if we do need a sponsor and who it might be, Cowen has a robust Healthcare practice and could provide instant buying power and market awareness.
We'll see soon I hope.

The only head scratcher for me is our current shelf prospectus which doesn't qualify us to raise cash in the US but maybe we'll change that when we get approval and actually list. "
Canada and the US have a reciprocal agreement called the Multi-jurisdictional Disclosure System that allows Canadian companies to raise capital in the US markets using Canadian regulatory procedures (e.g., shelf prospectus). All Antibe has to do is apply. I believe the latest shelf was valued in US dollars.

I don't think that you need a sponsor. And I'm pretty sure that the company can use the Canadian prospectus as is without SEC review.
If you are interested in pursuing this and have several hours to kill, the 100 lb brick (reference) should provide an answer. Good Luck! :)
