Industry analyst, technology scout and consultant to companies looking to incorporate emerging technologies into their products, services and business processes. Interest and experience in formulating and executing technology strategy, assessing technologies that fall under the Artificial Intelligence (AI) umbrella and finding the appropriate tools, techniques and vendors that might help organizations build systems that would incorporate some of these intelligent technologies into their future applications. Background and deep interest in all aspects of machine intelligence and robotics. I have worked in both industry and academia, helping companies within a variety of industries to bridge the research/experimentation/prototype-to-new product/service gap. I assist companies in formulating their long-term technology strategies and thinking about how unconventional ideas at the frontiers of research might position them to create new business opportunities and compete more effectively in the future. My past experience includes roles as a hardware design engineer, software developer, advanced technology researcher, marketing director, product manager, industry analyst, management consultant, and industry-university connector ... at large companies as well as start-ups. Specialties: Emerging technology application, adoption and deployment; technology transfer from research to industry; corporate strategy; industry analysis; technology road-map development; business and technology requirements articulation; market positioning; competitive landscape analysis; new product introduction; technology strategy; developing partnerships between organizations; exploring opportunities in emerging markets.
