There are hundreds of technology 'startups' out there that exist to fleece investors. None of them go out with a bang as in The Producers, because it's far more lucrative to maintain the illusion of a technology perpetually on the cusp of commercialization so they can continue raising round after round of fresh investments.
Examples:
-Phantom Entertainment
-Moller International
-Blacklight Power
