    Good luck to you, but I'd say Yahoo Answers isn't really the forum to go seeking funding - too many cynics!

    Keep on knocking on the big corporations doors - one will open. Try those companies that are making loads of money right now and maybe want to improve their public profile a bit. The oil companies look like good candidates to me.
