Chemistry(and biology) is one such field: the chemical/biological process behaves very differently whether it's don't in small quantities of the lab or in the huge volumes required for a commercial effort. So think of that large($100mm) factory as a research process , that can often fail. Example: commercializing biotech often fails because it's not possible to control contamination and genetic evolution of the bacteria you grow in huge processes .
