What I'm buying into then, is pretty much a customer base, current owners knowledge, and a faded brand.
There would have to be developed a completely new additive package for their products under my co-ownership, and a new marketing strategy. And that is where the part about transparency will come into play.
Because why not have a community like this, help put together the "perfect" additive package?
I do not want to discourage any entrepreneur as that basically is how I began, but reality sets in early.
You keep mentioning transparency, but I do not understand what you mean by that and what your expectations of transparency might be. Perhaps you could elaborate further.
Harvard: Transparency
Recommendations:
1) Sort out "pie-in-the-sky" expectations and comments from what is scientifically attainable,
2) Once you have sorted out 1), contact an additive manufacture and give them your specifications and performance targets. If you do not have the expertise, additive companies have the chemistry expertise to make whatever is attainable, but don't expect this part of the enterprise (custom formulations) to be cheap.
