You don’t have a customer base or
a traditional business plan. Why would
a company like Google, Microsoft, or HP consider acquiring a company like
yours? Google is serious about attacking the Enterprise Market with a different approach to Information Management. However we believe, and have heard from Google’s target markets, that Information Management doesn’t end with simply finding Information, but rather extends to the end-to-end process of defining, working, completing, and learning from the Tasks and Missions which define the importance of the Information we find. We currently have a Windows based Solution which cleanly layers on Google’s current offerings and a clear vision and plan on how to extend these offerings to more smoothly and completely deliver more complete end-to-end Solutions to any Vertical Market. If, as you read this, you agree that the ideas presenter here have merit and address real needs, then it is inevitable that some of these ideas will hit the market. If you are Google, you consolidate your leadership position as a company who is changing the way we locate and manage our Information. If you are Microsoft, HP, Apple, or any other significant player with platform reach, you gain significant Mindshare if you are first to market with some or all of the innovations presented here. There is a long history of Software Technology acquisitions where the acquirer shuts off all new adoption of the acquired product until they integrate the Technology into their own platform. Google’s Fall 2006 acquisition of JotSpot has just been introduced as “Google Sites” in the spring of 2008. We have a solid, deployable, Windows Reference Architecture implementation of EVERYTHING we present in this document (and a lot of other features we don’t even mention here). We also know how we would approach the integration of our Intellectual Property into the current Technology base of all of the potential acquirers we have mentioned here. |
