Curriculum Vita February 2015

SYNOPSIS Awards and Recognitions

o First ever Distinguished Professor at Anderson School of Management– University of

New Mexico named in 2007.

o I have a number of articles that appear in top level journals in the Business ad in the

Technology Management fields. I have articles that are in the top business journals

listed on the Financial Times top 45 journals in Business. These articles appear in

Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice (1 article), Journal of Business Venturing (1),

Operations Research (2), California Management Review (3) and Management

International Review (1). I also have 6 articles in the IEEE Transactions on

Engineering Management considered the top journal in technology management. I

have many other (over 50) publications in very good journals as well.

o I have also been listed in a 1990 survey by Eom and Lee entitled "DSS (Decision

Support Systems) Applications Development Research: Leading Institutions and Most

Frequent Contributors" in the September 1990 issue of Decision Support Systems (6:3,

pp. 269-275) as one of the most frequent contributors to the literature. The research

area has been one in which I have received a number of research grants.

o A 1996 article in Interfaces (26:2, pp.16-21) ranked The University of New Mexico

14th in contributions to the Operations Research/ Management Science practice

literature. I have contributed to that ranking as seen by my Operations Research and

Interfaces articles.

o A survey by Linton entitled “PERSPECTIVE: Ranking Business Schools on the

Management of Technology” in the November 2004 issue of the Journal of Product

Innovation Management (21:6, pp. 416–430) ranks the Management of Technology

(MOT) Program at the University of New Mexico as 6th in the U.S. I am the founder

of the program.

o I have been invited to give many presentations at national and international

conferences.

o I held many professorships at Anderson including the Regents’ Professorship, the

Albert Franklin Black Professorship in Entrepreneurship, the ASM Foundation

Professorship

o I am the first recipient of the ASM Endowed Chair in Economic Development.

Professional Experience o I serve/served on the Board of Directors of the Women Economic Self Sufficiency

Team (WESST) and Share Your Care (a non-profit that specializes in providing

day services to persons with Alzheimer's and related Dementia, as well as adults

with developmental disabilities and severely disabling mental illness). I have

served on many boards of small startups such as Mesosystems and PatchWorks. I



served on many other boards such as the NM Information Technology Association

and the Micro and Nano Commercialization Education Foundation.

o I am a partner in Sandia Capital Partners, a New Mexico investment banking group.

I also serve on the advisory board for Verge, a New Mexico seed capital group. I

was a consultant to Ardesta, a Michigan-based $100million venture fund focused

on nanotechnology and Microsystems.

o I consulted with many local, national and international organizations such as Sandia

National Laboratories Los Alamos National Laboratory, Ardesta and Public

Service Company of New Mexico.

o I worked with a large number of high-technology start-up firms. This work involved

writing business plans, assessing the technology and assisting in getting angel or

venture capital. Some of the companies involved are Management Sciences,

Willow Systems, Khoral Research, Permafresh, Mesosystems, Applied Research

Associates, PatchWork Systems and many other start-ups.

o I have developed (with Raul DeGouvea) many university exchanges with several

universities in Brazil that send students every summer to UNM for seminars on

innovation and globalization.

External Fund Raising and Donor Cultivation Although the conventional wisdom suggests that external funding is much more difficult

in business schools, I have developed a number of avenues for external funding:

ENDOWMENTS:

o I have been successful in raising funds to fund prizes and expenses for the

Technology Business Plan Competition and Entrepreneurial Challenge since 2005.

This amount totals $150,000 per year with $50,000-$100,000 in prizes and

$100,000 to support the activities ranging from seminars on technological

entrepreneurship to the awards dinner, advertising, etc.

o I have led the effort to fund the Radosevich Room for MOT and Entrepreneurship

in the renovated Anderson Graduate School building.

o The MOT Program has developed the reputation based on work done with the

community to receive the PNM Chair in Microsystems Commercialization and

Technology for 5 years (2002-2006).
