This is a great point. I used to work for a large biotech firm and we agonized over decisions that small companies wouldn't even bat an eye at. When you already have several billion in sales, you worry about jeopardizing them. When you have nothing, what is there to risk?

Here the concern was that Lego would jeopardize it's brand, but they also wanted to leverage their brand to increase appeal. Were the issues you were dealing with similar, or of a different nature? Can you give any examples? I know little of the biotech buisiness, and I'm sure it'd be interesting.
