difficult for BT to touch them. Perhaps somebody can elaborate on that.
I agree but BT has a lot of money they would burn to protect their business and they could make a patent fight very expensive for TAAT. I saw that situation when I worked as a Consultant with a startup company who had invented a product used to insulate electrical boxes. It had great potential. A large dominant company already making related products just started making a copycat product. The small company I worked with went out of business because it was too expensive to protect their patent and soon the large company took away all the sales.
That kind of threat exists for TAAT where we have a large very profitable market leader that has the resources to wage a battle for market share against a small start up company.
Since BT is so big they may not care if TAAT captures a small market share. They may not care even if TAAT captures a few hundred millions in revenues but there will be a point where they react to growing revenues from a competitor
IF TAAT does very well. That point time might be years away so I'm not worried at this point.
