CEOs of Biotechs AXM Pharma, Chemokine Therapeutics Corporation and Human Biosystems to Present at the ValueRich Small-Cap Financial Expo.

PALM BEACH, Fla. -- Scripps Research Institute Scientist Dr. Christopher Baker to Speak

AXM Pharma (AMEX:AJX), a global pharmaceutical company engaged in production, marketing and distribution in China; Chemokine Therapeutics Corporation (TSX:CTI), a Canadian biotech company developing and manufacturing Chemokine-based products to treat cancer, and blood disorders; and Human BioSystems (OTCBB:HBSC), a biomedical research company focused on storage extension solutions for biomaterials such as blood platelets and donor organs, are among the public companies presenting their businesses at the ValueRich Small-cap Financial Expo in Palm Beach, Florida, March 9-12, 2005.

In a biotech keynote event, Christopher Baker Ph.D. (Neuroscience), representing Scripps Research Institute, one of the country's largest private non-profit bioresearch organizations, will speak. Dr. Baker was the first full-time scientist to begin research at Scripps Florida, the California research giant's new East Coast expansion brought to Palm Beach County by Florida Governor Jeb Bush. Scripps Florida will differ from other academic research institutes by incorporating drug discovery operations typically seen only in pharmaceutical companies. Early interest in a major biotech cluster has already begun to materialize around the Scripps campus.

The ValueRich Small-cap Financial Expo will be held in the new Palm Beach County Convention Center occupying the main exposition hall and two floors of meeting rooms, making it the largest small-cap financial event ever held.

The CEO and executive teams from hundreds of Small-cap public companies will participate in this event -- the first to offer a unique format combining three days of leadership level business development with traditional financial presentations before thousands of research analysts, fund managers, investment bankers, investors, accountants, attorneys and the financial press.

Executives and attendees will spend the final day of the conference at a ValueRich hosted golf tournament and 19th-hole closing party on the Champion course at the PGA Resort and Spa in Palm Beach Gardens.

Joining ValueRich as Platinum Sponsors will be New York based broker-dealer Maxim Group, Steinway Musical Instruments (NYSE:LVB) and Bombay Sapphire. Other sponsors for the event include EDGAR Online (NASDAQ:EDGR), Business Wire, Bigdough, Jacuzzi Brands (NYSE:JJZ), American Business & Professional Programs, Inc., GEVRIL Fine Swiss Timepieces Since 1758, WStreeet.com, Cornell Capital Partners, Financial Content Inc.
