Do you consider every political donation to be a bribe? You may very well be correct, but a definition that includes nearly every corporation or wealthy individual may not be particularly useful as a term.

Unless the subject is a rare individual ( mother Teresa, spirituality ascended personalitie etc), rarely who shelves out resources not hoping to get something in return.

Especially not a corporation in a field heavily regulated to prevent that.
