Wikipedia sez that Kobo started as a division of Indigo Books and Music, a big box retail store in Canada that sounds a lot like B&N. Last year it was sold to Rakuten, one of the world's largest Internet companies.
I admire Kobo, but I'm not sure you could describe it as a "smaller company with little capital."
I think its likely that Kobo is going to expand at the expense of BN.
