Researchers come up with bright ideas. Unscrupulous businesses exploit them for personal gain. Before this gets out of hand, can it be prevented?

Ideal minded researchers come up with great ideas, inspired to improve society and the environment. But unscrupulous and greedy businesses hijack these for personal gain in the name of technology-society-country, taking all for a ride. Before these go out of hand and become an all powerful force, should conscientious researchers install a self-imposed regulatory mechanism/body that ensures that science & technology are only used for the upliftment of society; strengthen it so that unethical applications of science and technology are severely obstructed and also punishable by law?
Leaving these to the public and its proxy-The Government, have not worked out in the past and always end with the perpetrators getting away with a light rap on the wrist. In the end, the public and the environment are always the sufferers. Should we self-limit self-regulate ?
The sole objective of a business in modern times is to gain profit. This is ostensibly hidden and a great show is made of benefitting society or the environment. Very few businesses exist that care about people and the environment except probably the corner traditional family run grocery store. In ancient times, the sole objective of a business was to benefit society, providing it with goods and services that are 'need-based' only, without much advertising. Modern businesses are the opposite in that they are 'want-based' and create a product/technology/service and then create a demand for it by heavy advertising. Isn't this leading all toward moral, economic and environmental bankruptcy?
One of the earliest examples of greed in business is the example of the East India Company which led to the colonization of entire countries before they could be driven out. Should this be self-regulated at the start itself so that unethical, 'want-based' businesses cannot exploit researchers, society and the environment now and in the future ?
