Hostile takeover by any means. Who would win?

I would think the company that has the technology to make Iron Man suits would be most dangerous. Not to mention, they can be remote controlled.
Stark. Guy's rebuilt his company more times than Jean Grey's died.
Lots of his opposition was himself.
Stane had one massive advantage Luthor did not - Stark didn't know he was a douche before the takeover events. Stane had a second advantage - he was manipulating Tony's alcoholism. Thing is, Tony's pretty resistant to that now, and Bruce has no way to get him there.
Stark's tech and funding are lightyears beyond Bruce's. Stark puts space-bases in orbit around jupiter, builds the a city a thousand years more advanced than anything else on earth, builds part of a Dyson sphere.
The stuff Stark tosses out is better than anything Wayne has on the books.
Unless Wayne's going to be sending assassins after Stark, he has no way of putting him down for good. And yeah, as mentioned above backroom are only going to mean so much when Stark's giving the world absurd levels of tech that Wayne can't match. It'll be Google vs Yahoo all over again.
Wayne, just because that kind of espionage based prep is Bruce's specialty.
Wayne's specialty is fighting street-crime. Anything else is a side-dealy.
Bruce's personality/espionage based feats are far more vast than Tony's. His back and forthing with Ra's and others over the years on a worldwide level, personality reading/manipulation, public opinion/subterfuge shifting, and the fact that he already took over LexCorp, as an actual feat, is higher than anyone Tony has ever fought.
Tony is primarily an invention-prepper. He makes things in order to read on a high tier level. Bruce is primarily a psychological/personality/subterfuge prepper. He long-term manipulates situations to win on a top tier level. Bruce is about as good in the former, feat-wise, as Tony is in the latter, they're both good, but on completely different tiers when it comes to their respective strengths, as compared to the other. "Corporate takeover" relies more on the latter, than the former.
