Dev is an Associate Professor of Strategic Management and Entrepreneurship at the University of New Hampshire, Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics. His current research projects examine the impact of knowledge-based partnerships in “high-tech” ecosystems and the benefits it brings for entrepreneurial ventures (in terms of faster new product development cycles, invention and commercialization success, and acquisition potential). In addition, he also studies the benefits of knowledge partnerships on open innovation and through global value chains. For these projects, Dev collaborates with researchers from around the world, including the United States, Canada, China and India.

What Dev tells us:

Dev joined IdeaGist as a mentor because he wanted to mentor and support talented entrepreneurial teams from across the world.

“I have been mentoring here for the past four to five months,” he says. “The entrepreneur group I am mentoring is Debate it Forward, an exciting venture in the social innovation space.

“My research and teaching interests are at the intersection of entrepreneurship and innovation, including design thinking and lean startup methods.”
