Academic Experience
Research. My expertise is in environmental technology development and field implementation, and environmental finance, funded by $25M. in grants and industry support. Since 2005, my work has focused on an emerging area in sustainability: How can the capital markets and financial technology be harnessed to stimulate industrial renewal and green growth? Areas of study: (1) Development of financial technology (waterVaR) for risk pricing of financial assets in the capital markets exposed to water constraints; (2) Financial network analysis and data-driven risk analytics for the design of multi-asset renewal funds (MARF) in support of emerging sustainable industries; (3) New business models to scale or diffuse technologies and companies engaged in the energy-food-water nexus space, smart mobility, smart grid, and green chemistry.
Teaching and Service. I teach Business Model Design, Entrepreneurial Business Fundamentals (for Scientists and Engineers), CleanTech Venture Assessment, and Environmental Finance. My service activities include: US National Science Foundation - Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems; International advisor to Tekes, the Finnish Funding Agency of Innovation; Strategic consultant to the Asia Development Bank and the World Bank on cleantech project investments in Southeast Asia.
