Although the commercial trial in Slovakia proved that the customers and the suppliers love the service, unfortunately the organisations that currently service the market are not set up to introduce new services to a market and therefore new concepts such as responsa are unlikely to succeed with incumbents.  Lack of funds and consequently a lack of a management team capable of bringing the service to market in competition with the incubents has meant that the founder could see no realistic route to market and has decided to stop funding responsa's continued existence.

Steve Isaac has instead set up a ski business www.pisteside.com which he and his wife will be running.  He is looking forward to running a business where all aspects from customer acquition through to providing the service are handled directly with no need to deal with large organisations.  If you fancy a great ski holiday with real attention to customer care, then please book a holiday with us www.pisteside.com .

All the assets of responsa are available for sale (make us an offer), this includes, patents, trademarks, copyrights, systems and software marketing material and commercial knowledge related to this lucrative market, as well as spin off ideas exploiting the intellectual property for other markets, e.g. responsa groups and other products.
