Foster's Law
No one is standing in the way of innovators, except perhaps government bureaucrats.
If this had been a U.S. venture, the bureaucrats would NOT be interested in how amazing or promising the technology was. They would DEMAND that the project comply with all applicable OSHA regulations, Sarbanes-Oxley filings, SEC disclosures, affirmative action policies, etc, etc, B
EFORE taking any investor money and building anything.
Also, any innovator with any brains or perspective should pay heed to the "fault finders" and understand and assess the nature of the faults they are finding.
A successful innovator is NECESSARILY going to rely on the lessons learned from the many, many unsuccessful innovators who have been down the road before.
Any "innovator" who lacks the humility to understand that other people may have looked at the problem and discovered unanticipated problems is CERTAIN to run up against his own set of unanticipated problems.
"Fault finders" are a valuable and essential part of the innovation process.
