BRIEF PROFILE

Alex (Geunho) Lee is a technologist and intellectual property strategy expert in information

technology and telecommunications. After earned his Ph.D. in physics from the Johns Hopkins

University, he started his professional career at Korean ministry of information & communication s

radio research laboratory. His role was to provide technological research for the global standardization

in IT and telecommunications and strategy analysis for legislation of government regulations and

policies for emerging technologies.

After four years of his affiliation with S. Korean government, he held several academic and industry

positions, which are all related to research, strategy, and intellectual property management for

emerging technologies as a researcher, manager, executive, advisor, and professor both in the US and

S. Korea. Some of his formal affiliations are Boston University's School of Management, Georgia

Institute of Technology's School of Electrical Engineering, WIPS's IPR Business Strategy Institute,

Samsung Techwin's Semiconductor Device Business Division, and Korea Telecom's Technology

Center.

He is a subject matter expert in mobile computing and wireless communications and holds several

industry certifications including CompTIA RFID+ and Korean CVA (Certified Valuation Analyst). He

is a member of IEEE and AIPLA. He is now attending Suffolk University Law School for his J.D.

Degree. He is registered to practice before the US Patent and Trademark Office.
