Executive Director AGVE –“Alliance for Government Virtual Engagements” (Washington, DC) 2013-Present Lead this 501 c (3) non-profit dedicated to fostering technology-focused bridges, best practices and communications between government and the private sector to enable high performance/price business operations for government
? First Chief Commercialization Officer of the United States of America, Director of Public-Private Partnerships Office and Executive Director of R&D Partnerships Group US Department of Homeland Security and the White House (Washington DC) 2007-2011 This five year special appointment by both Presidents Bush and Obama accomplished significant results for the benefit of the US Department of Homeland Security and taxpayers because of the unique partnering models we developed with the Private Sector. More than $5.6 billion in R&D was expended by the private sector to develop products and services for DHS, First Responder and Critical Infrastructure and Key Resource (CI/KR) markets. The success of developed federal programs like SECURE, FutureTECH and our detailed commercialization process through the establishment of the Commercialization Office in DHS received substantial press and represented a new paradigm in Private-Public partnerships evidenced by 60-70 invitations per week to speak at both business and technical events. In addition, it has been conservatively estimated that our Requirements Development Initiative will save over $2.5 Billion in DHS resources per year; the Commercialization process will save over $10 Billion annually at DHS at full implementation; and our S&T Private Sector Outreach program will save over $350 Million in S&T budget and opportunity costs alone. I interacted regularly at the C-level with literally thousands of small, medium and large private and public corporations throughout the world. The success of these endeavors culminated in our ability to not only interact with and throughout the highest levels of DHS, but also at the highest levels throughout other government agencies to share the programs and processes we established for replication in other Federal government arenas. We have wrote twelve widely published books, detailed tutorials, articles and other training materials for dissemination not only throughout DHS, but other government agencies focused on developing detailed requirements. In 2010, while continuing to serve as Chief Commercialization Officer, I was appointed the Director of the Office of Public-Private Partnerships which oversees the Long Range Broad Agency Announcement (LRBAA) procurement process, Office of SAFETY Act Implementation (OSAI), Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Office as well as the Commercialization Office. In addition, I was named Executive Director of the Research and Development (R&D) Partnerships Group responsible to leverage the billions of dollars in assets and the expertise of more than 1300 team members through the group’s investments in national labs, universities, international partners, the private sector and government interagency partners to develop technologies and products for the Homeland Security Enterprise (HSE).Within the first year of serving as Executive Director, increased the number of SAFETY Act approvals by 33% as well as the number of direct and indirect partners with whom RDP collaborates by 2,282% (over 30,000 contacts). Briefed and work with the DHS Secretary, Deputy Secretary and Operating Component Leaders of the Department on a regular basis as well as the US Cabinet, President’s CTO and CPO and many other members of the White House.

? President and Chief Operating Officer Zyvex Corporation (Richardson, TX) 2003 – 2006 Led effort to transition the company from technology-push to market-driven firm focused on high volume nanotechnology applications.

Note: Rigorous Academic Work Not Published in the Open Literature
Conducted a plethora of academic research throughout my career—but much of it, while peer-reviewed and scrutinized internally under Non-Disclosure Agreements, was not published in the open literature due to its confidential nature and the policy of various organizations that did not want it published for business competitive reasons. Below is a brief overview of some of the original research conducted that was published internally—but not in the open literature:

Shell Oil Company: 1. Time Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC): Pioneered spectroscopic techniques to use the time domain as a distinguishing characteristic of polynuclear aromatics found in crude oil. Typically employed frequency domain spectroscopic methods could not adequately “resolve” the types of compounds found in real world samples-but these newly developed techniques worked well by using the time domain as a distinguishing factor by measuring various fluorescence lifetimes. This work was reviewed at the time by Dr. Rick Smalley of Rice University in Houston, Texas who later received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in nanotechnology. 2.

Surfaced Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS): Brought to Shell this technology which I applied to the microscopic scale. I collaborated with Professor Fred Lytle of Purdue University who had an interest in this new area of research. I successfully used the techniques we developed to enable Shell to win a patent infringement case against Dow Chemical for over $650M in 1985.

Coherent, Inc.: 1. Conducted research on a variety of laser dyes to be used in conjunction with the astigmatically-compensated single-frequency ring dye lasers that I helped develop to enable Dr. Steve Chu (current Secretary of Energy) to perform his “optical molasses” experiments that won him the Nobel Prize in Physics.


Newport Corporation: 1. Developed novel, state-of-the art closed-loop active vibration control theories, processes and systems that enabled new types of semiconductor devices and processes by firms like Intel Corp., AMD and Texas Instruments. THOMAS A. CELLUCCI, PhD, MBA

2. Developed and proved an analytical theorem for predicting the efficiency and effectiveness of vibration control systems with researchers from the University of Arizona. These theorems are still used today throughout the semiconductor industry and predict the “maximum relative motion” of a scientific breadboard to sophisticated semiconductor equipment processing unit.


Etec, Inc.:
1. Researched and developed the first commercially-available, high speed optical MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) test & measurement system used by JDS Uniphase. Worked closely with scientists from Electroglass, Inc. to develop test models and procedures.

Zyvex Corporation:
1. Recognized Principal Investigator of a $25M grant from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to research and develop methods to fabricate MEMS tools to ultimately enable molecular manufacturing (see the attached invited presentation to Australian government at the request of the White House).

2. Developed and implemented a 12 year detailed technology roadmap for the research and development of both “Top-down” and Bottom-up” nanotechnologies to create the capability of atomically precise manufacturing with collaboration of over 6 universities around the world.

3. Gained recognition in the business community as a pioneer in the commercialization of nanotechnology through the development of a rigorous new product development and marketing model still used today by nanotech firms (asked to take part in an interview for the Harvard Business School to develop a case study about Zyvex).

4. Worked closely with both Dr. Rick Smalley (Nobel Prize in Chemistry) and Dr. Alan MacDiarmid (Nobel Prize in Chemistry) on a detailed technology roadmap to use nanotechnology to rid our dependence on foreign oil. This was presented personally to President George W. Bush and members of the US Senate.

5. Was a co-editor of the seminal work entitled “Micro/Nano Roadmap” which reviewed virtually all research being conducted throughout the world on MEMS and nanotechnology that proposed an international technology roadmap to harness the power of these emerging technologies. This work was done mainly with scientists from Sandia National Laboratories.


United States Government:
1. Responsible for the Research Council of the US Department of Homeland Security as well as the Executive Director at the Executive Office of the President for the National Science & Technology Committee.

2. Considered the “go to” person in matters related to nanotechnology and regularly attended meetings at the White House, Environmental Protection Agency, National Science Foundation, DARPA and Joint Chiefs of Staff related to classified research.

3. Active participant in scientific research that cannot be discussed at all.

4. Author of “A National Strategy for Advanced Manufacturing” for the White House.

5. Possess active TS/SCI/Yankee White clearance with “authority to operate” across ALL of the US Government, including the Department of Defense, Department of Energy and the Intelligence Community THOMAS A. CELLUCCI, PhD, MBA 12
