What if its just a strategy for them to actually gauge competition that are gaining traction in the market and to survey new ideas as well. My company is developing a unique product that we think will sell and we are thinking of going to Google but are wary of their intentions. Our product is still in its inception stage and if Google happens to get a hold of the idea, it would literally take them just a day to create and implement our project without us knowing and poof! Idea gone! Whats your take on this? Do u guys find this venture fund suspect?
