Bob’s presentation will be about GPRO®, an anti graffiti coating.  Bob developed, patented, oversaw production, marketed and turned his invention into a $7 million per year company. He sold the company 8 years ago and continues licensing other technologies he developed.

Bob was an educator for 30 years where he taught Chemistry in Brooklyn Technical HS, was chairman of the science department, district director of science and technology for a school district, and ended his teaching career teaching Organic Chemistry at Columbia University.
Bob holds 18 US and foreign patents and many pending. They include technologies ranging from concrete to candles. Bob’s philosophy is technology transfer. By that he means using technology from one field and using it to solve problems in another field. His credo is forget thinking about boxes. Inside, outside- THERE ARE NO BOXES!
