Technical Evaluation & Diligence for Deep Tech

About
Most deep tech diligence asks "is the technology good?" The better question is "will it survive the trip from lab to factory?"
I provide technical evaluation and diligence for investors and founders: a structured read on whether the technology holds up, where the seams are, and what would have to be true for it to reach production. The work is the same whether the company is Spanish or American; the failure modes are not.
I've spent eight years in 3D display technology, a hardware-plus-software problem industry where the failure modes all live in the seams. Moving from optics R&D to VP of applications, I've worked inside both US and European tech companies. That means I can assess not just whether the innovation is real, but whether the path from prototype to production is real too.
