About Tony Brandon

I\'m passionate about new material and process technology that make composites and plastic products more valuable in applications of merit.I apply my engineering and business skills to help identify, design, screen, develop, and ultimately commercialize new materials based technology in areas of fit.I\'m highly adaptive on new business teams; I fill roles from business growth strategy and early insight development to ultimately winning customers.I offer creative perspectives on targeted applications and innovative solutions to design teams.One of my latest accomplishments is to help redesign and commercialize a new material that is allowing sustainable composite traffic bridges to be cost competitive with conventional concrete and steel bridges.STRENGTHS:Strategy & Insight Development | Concepts & Screening | Cost & Financial Modeling | Value PropositionsSKILLS:Market Analysis | Voice of Customer | Technical Sales | Cross Functional Teams | New Business ModelsMARKETS:Wind Energy | Infrastructure | Marine | Transportation | aerospace | medical | consumerTECHNOLOGIES:Composites | Textiles | resins | coatings | thermoplastics | additives | molding processesEDUCATION:BS Chemical Engineering | MBAEXPERIENCE:14 years Business Development | Open Innovation | Technology Acquisition | Start-up | Strategy5 years Sales & Marketing | Market Analyst | International Sales | Market Manager5 years New Product Development | New Markets | New Technologies5 years Manufacturing | Production Management | Process EngineeringContact: t••••••••@gmail.com
