What about the possibility that another engineering firm, public or private, would be interested in merging with EDIG to instantly gain a larger footprint, access to capital et al, and parlay their patents and talents with EDIGs?

Many partnership angles exist.

The more capital EDIG has in the kitty, the more attractive they become.

Making bank is always a wise strategy, and even more compelling when you have 1.74 hundreds of infringers still at large...lol.
