Well done, I wish I’d done the same. But Coppetti was a very different animal to this management. He clearly didn’t have the skills or knowledge to advance things. It’s not fair to let him taint your view of this management. I believe the people in charge have a history of success and not one of manipulating shareholders and ripping people off.

To date, Suresh et al have stopped the company from chasing a cash drain and thus ruining the company. Instead he pivoted it and it seems to me we are on the verge of some success. How much...??. is up for debate. All this in short order. 

Clearly there have been missteps on the way, like the horrendous financing. Name a company that doesn’t. I’m sure even the fruit company shareholders had cause for mistrust in management in the early days. So much so, a large shareholder sold his 10% stake for peanuts. I’d go as far to say it’s self preservation to have mistrust in any management, even the best.

No company treads the murky, dark waters of starting a business on the venture exchange (or others) without error or the need for immediate cash, that leads to poor deals with financiers. 

Fundamentally it comes down to wether you believe they can take a concept to market and make money. I think their track records suggest they can.
