Alleged secrecy
[edit]When Calico was formed, Google didn't disclose many details,[1] such as whether the company would focus on biology or information technology.[2] The company issued press releases about research partnerships, but not details regarding the results of its research or the specifics of what it was working on.[3][4] This led to frustration by researchers regarding Calico's secrecy[4] and questions as to whether Calico had produced any useful scientific advancements.[5] Calico said the business' purpose was to focus on long-term science not expected to garner results for 10 or more years, even in a best-case scenario. Therefore, there was nothing to report in its first five years.[5][6]
