N Sharma

I bring a rare combination of deep technical expertise, commercialization experience, and client‑facing consulting skills developed through a PhD in Materials Chemistry, postdoctoral leadership at the Indian Institute of Science, and recent consulting engagements guiding innovation projects toward European Innovation Council and NSF objectives.

- Technical credibility and commercial translation.

I hold a PhD from National Sun Yat‑sen University and have led multi‑disciplinary teams to translate advanced materials research into product concepts, prototypes, and IP (30 publications, 1 patent). This technical depth enables rapid comprehension of complex client offerings and credible engagement with R&D and product teams.  
- Consulting and project leadership.

As Project Consultant at Alien Technology Transfer I scoped and managed multi‑sector projects (sustainability, semiconductors, aerospace), ran client kick‑offs, produced market and risk analyses, and aligned technical roadmaps with funding programs such as EIC and NSF. I consistently deliver actionable recommendations that balance technical feasibility with commercial impact.  
-Data‑driven pricing and go‑to‑market mindset.

My work on commercialization includes market research, financial projections, and SWOT‑based decision frameworks.  
-Cross‑cultural collaboration and stakeholder management.

I have led international teams in Taiwan, India, and with US/EU clients, and I hold a Taiwan Gold Card (2025), demonstrating mobility and experience working across regulatory and cultural contexts.

- Led postdoctoral teams at IISc on surface‑engineered nanomaterials for energy and environmental applications, improving performance metrics relevant to productization.  
- Consulted on commercialization strategies that supported accelerator and grant submissions, aligning technical milestones with investor and program expectations.  
- Authored 30 research papers and 4 book chapters, demonstrating rigorous analytical skills and the ability to synthesize complex evidence into clear recommendations.
