I think it's the vision of one man or a small team that can put things together and make things happen. The problem is development money. If you don't have it, you can spend all your otherwise inventing time trying to get it. When you bring in people who want to make your vision their own because they have money, you start inventing by committee and the whole thing has more of a tendency to fall apart than to come together, ala Aptera, and so many others. Or you can try to sell drugs like DeLorean...
