By understanding the interconnectivity of business, academic institutions, governments and support organizations, Ron is a leader of innovative companies with significant exits. His previous clients have largely faced issues surrounding attraction of capital and the commercialization strategy formulation and implementation. Ron considers one of his greatest accomplishments to be the growth of a business to 250 employees, making more than $100 million in revenue, before completing a significant exit for shareholders.
