That might not be entirely true.

Taking into consideration the failure rate of startup businesses, even in estabished market sectors, the viability of a new business type starting from scratch, as opposed to a new service being introduced by a financially established related business, seems questionable.

Will the company have the resources to survive until profitability is achieved?

If not, then all data is lost, along with the fees paid by individuals, unless an established company sees the viability and purchases the assets, that is, the data in the forms of images, etc., and carries it forward.
