Good post Mazan. I especially like the promote without exaggeration. Let's hope Subash (or Ajit when present) does 99% of the talking on the road show.
I suggest if your friend from UAE is truly interested in POET and willing to consider 1-2M+ on a position that you may want to mention this to Chris Chu to possibly arrange a conference call with Subash. I think Subash will give him great confidence in POET's direction and it is a large enough position to engage.
