Well,

I would personally have liked to be involved in a research I have just described --- but one would need a good physics lab

 [ with electron microscopes, a dust free environment, an sub atomic accelerators and stabilizers etc etc ] not forgetting a good theory team of the best mathematic, physics and programmers at your disposal..

What I have just described is what several countries are funding to come up with the technologies we have today...

It takes years dedication and harassing governments and companies to release funds and create such lab facilities to do just one step of the process... mind you, most of these, if they do not succeed- just end up with 'useless' facts that do not have application in real life [for example- an electron has never really been seen, but certain physics traces can confirm its existence]

That is not likely to happen in developing countries ... I dont want to be negative,

But:

We are still dealing with basic needs [deforestation, uneven food distribution, black outs, domestic and international debt, subsaharan africa has the most influx of disease and outbreaks] and political leadership alignments almost every waking hour of the day...

Sweden - with a GDP of almost 38,000 dollars - with almost negligible deaths per year - has produced some of the best research in recent years, and funded most of it -- among others - gsm, wcdma, 4g LTE [currently]...

Sweden can afford it and provide me with the neccesary, if I promise them results and show them a good plan -

Can the Ministy of Finance Kenya allocate 1 billion dollars [from their hard earned budget  ] for my replicator ?

What about local companies ? Because as individuals, we cant hack it -

-- But we can stand on the shoulders of giants and 'borrow' like the chinese do - and mabbe add one or two improvements [ e.g a dual sim  feature ]
-- Or we can build on patented research once the preliminary lab work has been done and published - we can can up with some very nice innovations

Just my thots :-)
