The challenge Viltec faces is to thrive inspite of the two concerns. If they are successful she would even earn the innovator incentive from every machine built worldwide based on her ideas. because farmers insist on the label, because they realised that the country operator makes sure, that the guarantees are honoured by him. It is these services which will have keep the producers interested to stay in touch with Viltec. The country operator will therefore always be challenged to be a really interesting partner. I therefore specifically intend for Viltec to earn its money with the services it is providing, and not with the technology.
Technology is free.
Any Viltec technology is easily copied, but the Viltec services make sure the quality of the machine is okay, and the follow-up services too. Viltec doesn't deal with patentable technology. And if it weren't fun there would be no reason for Viltec to exist. Furthermore I was told it will be difficult to keep track of design specifications. And finally it was pointed out that a good quality central production with a good retail-system would lead to a much faster impact.
