I don't think that helps the IPO. What's better than saying, "We are the only producer (outside of Samsung) with quantum dots qualified and selling in mass quantities in the display industry!"?
FWIW, Nanoco is currently active in the display market supply chain. They currently sell QD's to Wah Hong, Merck, DuPont, and claim to be working with other resin, ink, and film producers. If they get a major win, I think that hurts, not helps Nanosys' IPO story.
