Yes, having a good backing by a huge entity is a bonus.

But it's not a guarantee for success either. Google+ anyone?

Indeed, yet it helps a lot, as proven by all wannabe C and C++ successor languages.

The only ones that are actually taking off, have the baking of major corps, even if it is only giving money into the project.
