Helping Marine Technology Companies Navigate New Markets
Business development, market intelligence, technology commercialization, and government-market strategy for companies developing ocean, maritime and environmental technologies.
From advanced sensors and underwater acoustics to autonomous systems and environmental monitoring, innovative marine technologies often have applications well beyond the market for which they were originally developed. I help technology companies identify those opportunities—and develop practical strategies for reaching the customers, partners and markets that can turn promising technology into sustainable business.
Marine Technology Is Familiar Territory
My marine technology experience began in high-volume sonobuoy manufacturing and expanded into oceanographic and environmental instrumentation, including work with YSI and its multiparameter water-quality technologies.
Combined with decades of work in technology commercialization, market research, business development, technology transfer and federal R&D programs, that experience gives me a practical understanding of both the technology and the markets surrounding it. Today I bring that experience to companies developing technologies for the ocean, maritime, environmental and defense markets.
A Track Record That Helps Chart Your Course
Environmental Instrumentation
Experience with design and sales of multiparameter water-quality instrumentation and sensing technologies.
SBIR/STTR Commercialization
Extensive experience developing commercialization strategies for federally funded technologies.
Defense Technology
Market and commercialization work involving advanced technologies developed for DoD requirements.
Hands-On Business Development
Market research that progresses into prospect identification, outreach, partnerships and customer engagement.
One Technology. Multiple Potential Markets.
Commercial < Marine Technology > Government/Defense
An environmental sensor may have naval applications.
An SBIR-developed autonomous system may have commercial offshore applications.
A specialized government technology may solve a much larger commercial problem.
I help companies find those connections.
