Responsible for sourcing, assessing and funding early-stage clean technologies from universities and national labs (eventually funding about 10 technologies), building up the Entrepreneur-in-Residence Program & all internal processes, and successfully supporting researchers to launch corporate partnerships and businesses.

I achieved this by building an extensive network of angel investors and venture capitalists, technologists, politicians, government officials and industry partners in Nevada and California to support NIREC, coach founding teams and commercialize early-stage clean technologies.
