People started being concerned about it in the 70's. Of course this thing grew over the years but it's not like everyone was non-chalant about it in the 2000's. Creating unnecessary waste wasn't ok even back then.

I think Deb hit it on the head, that there were already competition doing very similar things at the time. I'm surprised they didn't ask more questions about the patent itself, or maybe they just didn't show it.

    pitched valuation: £500,000 peter’s offer/final valuation: £133,333 (declined counter-offer valuation: £160,000) anytime I watch one of these pitches, the first thing I do is punch their numbers into my calculator to figure out the entrepreneur’s proposed valuation. the quickest way to do it is cross-multiplication - you multiply the amount requested by 100, and then divide it by the percentage of equity on offer. so for this pitch, it would be: amt requested - £40,000 equity offered - 8% 40,000✖️100 🟰 4,000,000 4,000,000➗8 🟰 500,000 and so the entrepreneur’s proposal values his business at £500K. peter’s offer for 30% equity values it at ~£133K. if peter had accepted the 25% counter-offer, it would have effectively valued the business at £160,000. :)
