MISSION
Scaling Technology
IPRD Group’s mission is to enable the global deployment of transformative technologies by bridging the gap between advanced research and commercialization. IPRD Group provides organizations the remaining leadership, technologies, intellectual property, business strategies and execution staff required to enable mass deployment of leading technical innovations.
Dr. Hanna, CEO and founder of IPRD Group, has conducted advanced research and deployments in application areas including: Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), biometrics, surveillance, multi-media and medical imaging. He has led world-class computer vision groups delivering on programs for both Government and commercial clients, and has led the technical teams that have developed and deployed many transformative technologies in both startup and established organizational environments.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Intellectual Property enables
Successfully navigating the intellectual-property landscape from the dual perspectives of freedom-to-operate and assertion-of-rights enables the deployment of capabilities while incentivizing sustained innovation. Intellectual property comprises patents, software, hardware, processes, and other technology components from multiple disciplines that meet the needs of deployment.
RESEARCH
Innovation is everywhere
Research that leverages innovation developed outside traditional organizational and disciplinary boundaries is key to the development of solutions that overcome technical, logistical, cultural, and other barriers in order to enable deployment.
DEPLOYMENT
Deployment is a process
Deployment occurs when the benefits of advanced capabilities are realized. It involves the definition of metrics-for-success, component specification, system design, system development, pilot implementation, system refinement, phased full implementation, provision of training and support processes as needed, development of prototypical business models that incentivize, and transition to partners capable of scaled and sustained deployment worldwide.
