I really hope Cliff Emmons and his associates will turn ITOX into a successful company, but I don’t understand why all the hype on this board about his degree from M.I.T. and the fact that he was a VP at Medtronic.
There are hundreds of thousands of businessmen with advanced degrees from M.I.T., Stanford, Duke, Ivy League schools and other prestigious institutions. Many are extremely successful. Others mildly successful. And some not particularly successful.
And there are also thousands who are, or have been, VPs at Fortune 500 companies, like Medtronic. That too does not necessarily assure success when they take over, or start up, a new business.
The jury is still out on Emmons. Let’s wait until there are tangible results before we anoint simply on the basis of his education and the fact he was one of many VPs at Medtronic.
And, the same goes for all the hype about ITOX’s collaboration with Aingura. The only benefit I have seen to date is the fact that Aingura advanced ITOX something less that $50,000 in order for ITOX to meet current expenses.
Let’s see some actual contracts and revenues before we sing the praises of Emmons and ITOX.
