James Black is a veteran soil scientist and cannabis cultivator with more than three decades of real-world experience across agriculture, regulated cannabis, biological systems, and international business. His cultivation work began in the mid-1990s, long before legalization, in environments where the science had to be learned the hard way and the commercial systems had to be invented from the ground up.

That field experience runs through every venture the GivLyfe platform develops. James is the strategic architect behind the company's long-term positioning and the primary driver of its founder-led identity. His lens is biological first, commercial second, and grounded in three decades of actually working the soil.

Based between Colombia and the United States.

Darius Jacobs brings a multi-disciplinary foundation that fits the GivLyfe thesis directly. He is a fourth-generation farmer with deep agricultural roots, a US military veteran, and an attorney with formal legal training. For more than a decade, he has worked inside industrial hemp commercial development, including direct collaboration with Alabama A&M University, one of the foundational institutions in US agricultural research and extension.

His role at GivLyfe spans strategic operations, business development, and the coordination required to scale ventures across multiple jurisdictions. Within the platform's founding team, Darius represents the discipline of US-side execution, agricultural credibility, and legal-operational fluency.

J. Breck Robinson serves as Counsel and Capital Partner to GivLyfe S.A.S. Based in Huntsville, Alabama, Breck advises on cross-border transaction structure, intellectual property, and capital strategy across the platform's ventures. His involvement provides GivLyfe with US legal and capital infrastructure complementary to its Colombian operating base.
