I'm remembering a post here on HN some time ago from someone that experienced that...

Demo'ed their tech to "big co" in the hopes of partnership/acquisition.. nothing came of it then 6 months later Big Co. released their own version of the exact same thing...

Be careful.

My startup is currently discussing with a prospect/potential acquirer that was very clear about this: "We'll do it, with or without you, so you'd better accept our under-priced offer". I'm not aware of any option to prevent any company to do that, is there?
