<Juanese says: It is a "gringo" company
Looks like Argentina is out of  Pattent agreements
so they need a separate patent to protect their  application world wide.

The rest sounds like a scam to  me!!!>

From my experience with patents - there is no such thing as a  world wide 
patent.  One has to file in each and every country where one  wants patent 
protection.  That gets to be very costly, very fast.  
 
Much as I believe that Nosema + virus  is the most likely  suspect for CCD, 
no one, including our own work, has gotten to the point where  one can 
fully satisfy Koch's Postulates, the definitive test for a causal  relation.
 
So, one has to ask, how can one cure something when one doesn't know  the 
cause?   And how do you develop a cure in a country that to  the best of my 
knowledge doesn't have CCD.   However, I've the  bees and both pathogens, so 
if they have a legitimate approach,  then they should be glad to have us 
test it.
 
And, I must confess, since I'm born and raised in the US, with all of my  
ancestors from Luxembourg and Germany, guess I'm a "gringo".
