Immupharma is a tiny company, roger. 6 people. And the very point that multiple large pharma groups have shown interest in p140 is testament to the potential scale of asset this tiny company is trying to manage… So put yourself in their shoes. Multiple large companies are interested, and remain interested, and they grab your attention at the beginning. And then over the ensuing weeks/months smaller and mid sized groups engage more and more with you. They answer your calls, their scientists engage frequently with yours, they want to put your asset left/right/centre, and they have the money to make a competitive offer… And in the background the behemoths roll on - talking to their R&D dept about how p140 could fit in, and engaging with half a dozen other departments before returning your call... And suddenly the smaller companies look more exciting - they will treasure your asset and move with speed to do something with it… Suddenly pointing out that a potential partner is “big” no longer seems so interesting. But it doesn’t mean they aren’t still there. Just a thought… DYOR IMO GLA
