About

Technology development project management from concept development to commercialisation and driving it to success is my passion.

I have almost 30 yrs experience in innovation strategy and new technology development project management. Have managed several complex multidiscipline technology(including Game Changer technology) development projects for quite a few multinational companies which led to many patent applications. The key to success has been use of lean project management and System Engineering approach.

I have been successful in securing funding for technology development from NFR through various programs like Skatte-funn, Forny, Petromaks etc, IFU program and have also exeperince from EU’s 7th Framework kMarie Curie RTN projects application and reporting.
