Takeover sooner rather later???

Extract taken from recent interview with CEO of Starpharma

Does it surprise you that big pharma hasn't come in and swooped in and bought the business to get, to get a hold of the dendrimer technology?
Yeah, look, I think it's a good question. If you think about what they will be paying in licence fees, I think that that is a very realistic and potential ultimate outcome. Yeah, look I think...
I mean if your dendrimer technology's as good as you say it is then AstraZeneca or somebody like that, or Merck should own it.
Yeah. I think that is a real possibility.
Has anyone actually nibbled at this point? Or can you tell us that?
Well, I think if there was any… yeah, I think if there was anything that required disclosure, then obviously that would mean…
You would disclose it.
…that we would disclose it
Of course. Thanks a lot, Jackie. Great to talk to you.
Okay. Thanks a lot, Alan.
That was Dr Jackie Fairley the CEO of Starpharma.
