Responsible for the progression of technologies from their nascent stages to advanced technology readiness levels (TRLs).

Actively collaborating with both academic experts and industry leaders to develop these innovations through the phases of prototyping and pilot scale, with the end goal of either evolution into spin-off companies or by positioning them as valuable licensable assets for broader industry application.

Built, managed, and coordinated an international team of engineers from architectural and civil through to MEP and control systems to develop and deploy the RedSea technology stack across all sites globally.

This included some of the world's most inhospitable areas and climates. Oversaw and directed DWC (deep water culture) and SWEC (salt-water evaporative cooling) R&D and commercialization that led, in part, to investments totaling ~$23M USD into the company.

These systems have been put into action at a commercial scale across the world in numerous harsh environment arenas.

Setup and led a prototyping and deployment team with the "Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation" (BMGF).

A successful $2M USD funding raise from the Gates Foundation allowed the work and IP generated from my doctorate to be both upscaled and deployed in pilot construction projects.

The developed photoreactors allowed the purification of polluted water with sunlight and minimal power input. This was coordinated across multiple countries requiring drinking water solutions with a low dependence on existing infrastructure.

These deployments have been showcased in New Zealand, Zambia, and India with the New Zealand deployment hybridized with a sub-critical reactor (world first) allowing enhanced purification.

A rapid prototyping and material development organization with a focus on 3D printing and bespoke "functional engineering materials".

Alongside developing novel printing materials, the company's tech stack also included the development of materials for use in Scuba fins, human organ mimicry as well as inert ordnance for battlefield clearance and training (UXO).

Inventions and products were showcased at "Arab Health" and selected for trials with Médecins Sans Frontières. Our range of de-mining and UXO equipment was purchased by the UN and deployed around Africa and the Middle East.

Worked to support ongoing industrial projects as well as rapid production issue resolution across multiple sites (UK and international).

Duties also involved the development of coating additives as well as developing new analytical techniques for industrial coating testing and analysis.
