Yes, Bliss Carman, and Peter Copetti (who appears to be too humble here) continues as follows (highlights by me):

"And that’s where the problem lies for I would say about 98 percent of investors. How can one evaluate a technology one lacks the technical depth to understand? Like the other 98 percent, I too must rely on how the industry responds to POET Technologies to arrive at any conclusion as to investment-worthiness.

But that’s exactly why it is so significant, from an investment perspective, that a guy like Ajit Manocha should see fit to tie his fortunes (at least in part – he does sit on the boards of several other companies).

“POET promises tremendous potential to the semiconductor industry as a next-generation technology,” he said “I am looking forward to being part of the POET Team and especially working directly with Mr. Copetti on building shareholder value.”"
