TGV leveraged multiple SBIR & STTR contracts to validate and develop its proposed advances in space propulsion. Simultaneously, TGV sought outside funding to speed development of "ideas" into hardware and ultimately into tested flight systems

Washington D.C. Metro Area

After several years of intense effort (culminating in the award of two SBIR's and one STTR contracts with the US Government ) TGV has now moved into, entering into Marketing and Business Development activities. We are now pursuing hardware contracts with both US Government and Commercial entities while continuing work on current (and future) US Government study contracts.

I successfully sold Delta launch services for several Indonesian satellites as well as for Motorola’s Iridium constellation. I was involved in related issues including securing US Eximbank financing, international trade policy negotiations and export licensing activities. In conjunction with the Iridum program, I successfully lobbied the California Legislature and succeeded in gaining a state sales tax exemption for commercial launches performed in California thus avoiding millions of dollars of lost profit on the program. Again, the position required the ability to act as a broker between a US aerospace company and primarily foreign satellite communication providers. Show less
