Running a public company is a lot lot harder than running a private company; it is like being on the treadmill all the time.
As a private company, we invest in long term R&D and infrastructure without worrying about how quarterly numbers would look.
Personally, as a public company CEO, I won't be able to live in a remote village and work on my own deep tech projects along with the school, the farm and rural works - the pressure to manage the stock price would be brutal and then I would have to transmit that pressure to everyone else in the company.
That relentless pressure leads to employee burnout and attrition.
We remain private because I want to work with our people long term on critical projects.
