Agravitae operates in the nutritional supplement MLM niche.

The company was founded in 2022 and is based out of California.

Heading up Agravitae we have founder Ken Owen (aka Kenneth Owen).

As per Owen’s Agravitae corporate bio;

Ken Owen, founder of Agravitae, grew up on a small farm in Oregon. After a prolific career in marketing and real estate, Ken knew he always wanted to return to his roots.

Soon enough he discovered what is now TKO farms – a hardwood and tropical fruit farm in Tea Kettle, Belize.

Some additional information Owen’s employment history is revealed in a June 2022 PR interview with Ideamensch;

After graduating from school, Ken landed in Palm Springs and began his career in land development.

As he cultivated new business relationships, he found that he had a skill set well-suited to sales.

This led him to a position with AT&T, which eventually brought him to Los Angeles.

It was here that Ken became one of the largest distributors of the then-new technology of voice over internet protocol (VOIP).

In California, Ken continued to learn all he could about investments and land development. Initially, he invested in several businesses, and while some worked out and went public, others did not do as well.

However, whether successful or unsuccessful, each opportunity provided him with more education in real time, and Ken took every lesson to heart.

The skills acquired through these transactions would eventually lead Kenneth Owen to the success he has found today.

Owen’s transition to TKO Farms seems to have come about in or around 2017.

As far as I can tell, Owen doesn’t have any MLM executive history prior to founding Agravitae.

In March 2024 discussion on BehindMLM suggested Healthy Home was made up of a large block of former NewULife distributors.

On April 1st GSPartners spinoff Billionico announced it had hired Alfredo Pino.

An accompanying press-release claimed Pino, who also goes by Alfie Pino, had been hired to “mentor elite education teams”.

Alfie Pino has extensive coaching experience, specializing in all things cryptocurrency.

He was teaching, helping students navigate the ever-changing rapids of the blockchain industry and has now introduced Billionico to his team, extending his unique mentoring methodology and enriching the platform’s holistic approach to business education.

Upon receiving the formal invitation to join Billionico as a coach of its elite educators, Alfie Pino shifted his focus from teaching individuals to mentoring a small group of select elites and now has a unique opportunity to make a global impact.

Research into Pino reveals a scrubbed FaceBook profile and press-release spam. This piqued my interest so I dug a bit deeper.

Turns out Pino, originally from Ontario, Canada, has quite a bit of regulatory baggage behind him. [Continue reading…]
