True, but as the article sates, though Vivek resigned from the company, it is still associated with him. He still holds about 7% stake in the company.

interesting article with fair criticism. It’s true that $PLUG did a lot to help create the GH2 market that so many others are now eager to enter.  A lot of risk that paid off!
