I feel like I'm in a slightly similar situation at the moment. I very recently told the founders of the startup I work at about a business idea I had that relies on our core technology. Our company really needs a new market, and this one looks like it could be huge. After explaining more of the details to them, they got very excited. We are currently investigating the feasibility of using our product for this application, etc., but if it works, it might "save the company". Assuming it works out business and tech-wise, I have no idea how this might affect me (besides still having a job to go to).
