Scaling impact through public societies, community programs and partnerships

I lead and advise society‑level initiatives that connect research, policy and industry to create measurable societal outcomes. My domain: Artificial Intelligence • Research • Innovation Strategy.

From founding public programs to chairing professional societies, I focus on building sustainable ecosystems that translate research credibility into practical outcomes — training, standards, technology transfer and public policy interventions.

Society-led programs I run or advise

Programs are designed around capacity building, standards, translational pathways and community engagement.
