I get the impression that Energous model is being run by people who know exactly what they are doing and are gaming the system to extract money as the main goal. They're really careful about what they say and the publicity they go after, giving just enough info in the right way to let others fill in the blanks, but without actually lying.<br /><br />There are some good commentators on Seeking Alpha, it can be pretty informative.<br /><br />At some point I'm going to get back to writing about Energous, it's just been difficult to get the time.StartupPRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10863632782404121915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057869926275243678.post-91503188338429571592016-09-08T23:22:27.305-07:002016-09-08T23:22:27.305-07:00Hi Paul,

A lot of what you're saying rings true (although not with my current company - we're making actual things far away from self-driving cars or medical equipment, and I'm loving it). <br /><br />One thing you might be interested in: "Those other guys", or Energous, has as their main backer a fund, MDB Capital out of Santa Monica, that seems to have pulled the same thing multiple times in the past - hype a company based on a story, ride it as long as you can and then cash out. I'm guessing they might even profit both when it's going up and when it's (unavoidably) going down.<br /><br />Here: http://seekingalpha.com/article/2358075-watt-be-prepared-to-lose-all-of-your-investment<br />mattishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02005405190537538328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057869926275243678.post-83083083077230068052016-09-04T00:28:49.889-07:002016-09-04T00:28:49.889-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16083872799262485780noreply@blogger.com
