Douglas Rosenberg (Born December 12, 1957) is a business leader based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Rosenberg is co-founder of Mesh Ventures, a cannabis manufacturing investment fund based in Oakland, California. Mesh Ventures invests in best in class companies involved in the extraction, manufacturing and branding of cannabis products for the medical and recreational markets in California. From October 2014 to September 2017, Rosenberg was Chairman of Midwestern Bio Ag based in Madison, Wisconsin. He led successful capital campaigns to support the company’s ambitious growth plans and remains an active member of the Board of Directors. Rosenberg founded and actively managed the Rosenberg Alzheimer’s Project from 2007 to 2014. He began focusing on Alzheimer’s Disease as his father and stepparents died from complications of the disease. Frustrated by research and development proposals that began to sound familiar, he[1] embraced an outsider approach, looking for the most credible scientists with alternative views of the disease.[2] Past grants supported the work of scientists pursuing novel therapies and those working to reduce the cost and time involved in developing potential cures. In early 2011, the Project[3] invested $3.5 million in the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, partnering with Dale Bredesen to examine alternative compounds to treat Alzheimer’s disease.[4][5] He holds a political science degree from Lewis and Clark College. He lives in Marin County[6].
