Dr. Thomas A. Cellucci possesses extensive experience and expertise as both a senior executive and Board member in both the private and public sectors, serving on eighteen Boards. In addition, he served as the US Federal Government's first ever Chief Commercialization Officer at the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under both the Bush and Obama Administrations, working closely with President Bush and President Obama as well as Cabinet level officials. Cellucci expanded the role of public-private partnerships within government and increased opportunities for cooperative research and development activities in support across government. As Chief Commercialization Officer, Cellucci was responsible for initiatives that identify, evaluate and commercialize technology for the specific goal of rapidly developing and deploying products and services that meet the specific operational requirements of DHS's operating components, first responders and critical infrastructure/key resources owners and operators. Cellucci's outreach with both the private and public sectors to establish and foster mutually-beneficial working relationships that facilitated cost-effective and efficient product, service and technology development efforts was viewed as goal for all federal agencies. He published at DHS alone, eight comprehensive books dealing with the development of operational requirements and innovative public-private partnerships in additional to over 20 articles and other resources that facilitate communication both across government and between the public and private sectors.


Cellucci developed and implemented a commercialization process while at DHS and established both the SECURE and FutureTECH programs-- innovative public-private partnerships to leverage both public and private sector research and development to cost-effectively and efficiently develop technologies, products and services for DHS stakeholders. Cellucci instilled a "commercialization mindset" within the government that focused on requirements development, forming partnerships and increasing the speed-of-execution to address high priority technology challenges. Cellucci's partnerships with the private sector leveraged well in excess of $350 million in independent research & development investments directly related to homeland security needs.


In 2010, while continuing to serve as Chief Commercialization Officer, Cellucci was asked to serve as Director of the Office of Public-Private Partnerships and was responsible for the effective integration of 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, he was asked to serve as the Director of the Research & Development Partnerships (RDP) Group to integrate and leverage the more than $8B in DHS assets and the expertise of more than 1400 team members through the group's investments in national labs, universities, international partners, special programs and the private sector and government interagency partners to deliver solutions for the Homeland Security Enterprise (HSE). After using his integration and management skills to form a cohesive RDP group, he was then asked to serve as a Senior Counselor, as well as the Chief Commercialization Officer at DHS.

Cellucci serves as the Commander of the 3-D ("Detect, Deter and Defend") Security Command Squadron in the State of Texas with the purpose of educating, preparing and organizing civilians across the state to assist in disaster response efforts.


Dr. Cellucci served on President Barack Obama's Startup America initiative as the Department of Homeland Security representative.

In addition, Cellucci represented the Department of Homeland Security on the Office of Science and Technology Policy's Interagency Working Group on Advanced Manufacturing, aimed at re-establishing American supremacy in this field.
