Quirky was (is) a company who helped inventors bring products to market. The concept seemed really solid, except that it supposedly has burned through millions in funding.

Looks like they recently ran out of money and are looking for a buyer.

It also looks like they owe some inventors who as of now, are hanging out to dry.

Like a broken record on this forum, when you cede control to a higher entity, someone who controls the purse, you set yourself up for a day of reckoning. When the purse is emptied and you are owed money, you most likely you are the one who will take the hit.
