Take it from someone who over the years has tried to promote POET via Seeking Alpha, Substack, micro cap clubs and blogs, a variety of stock boards and social media. Such efforts have a half life of a few days at most, but they are no more than a flash. Until there are substantive deals with specific names and dollars, the kind that translate to broader endorsement of the technology, stop trying to light the fire without the fuel.
Hire or dedicate a person capable and willing to be the face that is associated with POET at conferences and get on the agenda at CIOE, OFC, PIC, etc to present the technology to the industry’s audience. When is POET going to have their version of Blum, Bechtolsheim, Lebby, Bjorlin at these conferences?
And, when you are finally approaching the release of big news, have a plan to professionally and broadly promote to an investing audience that is primed to listen. Until then, it's a waste of time and resources.
