Opel's Strategy to Monetize Poet Process In my opinion, Opel's multi-pronged strategy to monetize Poet is a great idea and will benefit us as shareholders the most.
Why just sit around and wait for Dr. Taylor to complete the process in 2014...obviously all the teams involved believe Taylor is on track to hit milestones or they wouldn't be using Atomic to approach investors and potential buyers.
So now while Taylor's team continues to progress with Poet, we have Atomic telling the story to the world and we also still have Opel's Special Committee on Poet Commercialization who are taking their own actions, above and beyond Atomic's services....This seems like a very hard working, focused team who all have the same goal.....If they're successful achieving that goal....we all make money.
Is this guaranteed? No, of course not and nobody on this board is saying that...but you have to admit, we've got an impressive army of people all working together to sell the "Poet Process" to a very wealthy, very hungry High Tech market.

We believe that Atomic’s relationships and insights into the capital markets and the high tech semiconductor industry will be beneficial to building relationships with analysts and the appropriate business and technology media. This partnership is another component of our stated strategy to enhance POET technology’s outreach to a targeted investment and high tech community. As our business is now strictly focused on POET technology, we look forward to working closely with Atomic to ensure that we are effectively communicating OPEL’s strategy, milestones and successes to the proper audiences, in order to maximize shareholder value and expand our overall profile.”
