Pursuit Dynamics Share Chat (PDX)

"Despite attracting investment of £25 M between 2010 and 2012, Pursuit Dynamics only managed to provide customers with modest returns and after trying to do“ too much ” with the technology and stopped trading in March 2013 making 57 staff redundant, said Olympus Automation md Harry Norman……….Norman said Pursuit Dynamics was not successful with PDX because, as a company, it was not sufficiently customer focused and spent too much time trying to attract investment.“ They were good at selling a product, but not at making returns,” he claimed. “ They made outrageous claims about what [the technology] could do."
