information about them.

A. Ze'ev Hed, Sc.D.
Selected Specialties: materials technologies, advanced lighting and luminaires,
medical and scientific instrumentation, refrigeration and cryogenics, new product
development and launch, technology assessment and transfer

For the last ten years, general technologist Ze'ev Hed has provided consulting
services to a broad spectrum of corporations ranging from providing technology
assessment and new product development services to venture capital firms to
launch new start ups, to providing proprietary product solutions to Fortune 100
companies.

He holds an Sc.D. in Solid State Physics from the Technion and an M.Sc. in Nuclear
Physics from the Hebrew University. Dr. Hed's post doctoral work at Battelle
Memorial Institute and at IITRI concentrated on high temperature materials. Dr.
Hed holds 42 patents and has published 25 articles. Dr. Hed was President and
COO of a medical instrumentation company and Divisional President of a
technology oriented organization, both publicly traded.

Dr. Hed's areas of patent interest include cryogenics, thermoelectrics, innovative
medical devices and instruments for diagnosis and therapy, remote illumination
technology, superconductors and superconducting devices, novel chemical
processes and others. His motto is: "I am too stupid to know it cannot be done."
So long as an assignment does not violate the laws of nature, he is willing to take
a stab at it.

Anecdotes from Dr. Hed:
"I co-founded a research company looking at how high-intensity light
shifted the Circadian cycles of humans. The only problem with the
system was the excess heat in the room during testing. I invented a
system to duct the light into the room. Three patents have been
issued. The technology is being applied to backlighting liquid crystal
panels and illuminating appliances without external light."

"I was asked to find a way to cool the end of a catheter used in freezing
the arrhytmogenic tissues inside the heart. I combined the best
characteristics of traditional refrigeration techniques with
thermoelectric cooling to create a new technology which resulted in
two patents. The catheter is now starting its painful trek through the
FDA and other agencies' approval process. As for the technology, I own
the rights outside of the medical field. One simple application under
discussion is a 'stick-like' wine cooler that will rapidly cool a bottle of
freshly opened wine."
