State of play26 Mar 2025 22:47
Ruminating on where we currently stand, I do feel we are on the cusp of a serious breakthrough. Progress has been slow, years have passed, and we’ve had to put hands in pockets probably more times than we would have hoped, but I think the fact we are where we are now is down to collective belief that this will and has to work. Belief not only of the shareholders, who have been stoic in their support, but also the board who have dedicated a significant portion of their working life to this project, through thick and thin (quite a lot of thin), and they have to be given credit for that despite what anyone opines about salaries and progress. It was noted by Andy, who has considerable experience of smaller companies, that the shareholder base here is something quite unique in terms of their participation and dedication. In the face of seemingly insurmountable problems, human ingenuity has a tendency to sine through. My sincere thanks to those that provide insights that keep me believing. People are invested with more than just their capital. And I think that’s why we have survived. So as I sit here late into the evening, thinking about Quadrise (get a life – hopefully soon!), I do feel the next 3 months can light the touch paper. We have a unique story and the stage is set. I for one, am very much looking forward to seeing what we can make of this.
