SUMMARY:NASA Tech Talks: Lunar Innovations
DESCRIPTION:We want HOU! Join us to discover NASA’s toughest tech challenges—and apply your skills and expertise to solve them. \nAt this month’s NASA Tech Talk\, we’re going to learn more about patents\, innovation\, and space exploration. \nHow do you get patents for systems used on the Moon? How do you even think of something new? In “Lunar Innovations\,” Julie N. Strickland shares two of her patent-awarded systems and the story behind them. From a way to rescue an astronaut to a system that removes heat from a lunar habitat\, Strickland explains the thought process that went into developing these ideas. She breaks down the process from finding a problem worth solving to the amount of detail needed for a patent application. \nPlease join us after the talk for drinks and networking at Second Draught! \n  \nAbout the Speakers \nWith almost 20 years in the aerospace industry\, Julie N. Strickland is an experienced engineer\, project manager\, and innovator. She earned her degree in mechanical engineering so that she could facilitate space exploration. She worked on the design of the next generation spacesuit\, the Orion capsule\, and the Space Launch System (SLS). She is a space enthusiast to her core. \nMs. Strickland holds multiple patent awards in the US and internationally. She mentored junior employees over the years\, teaching them how to develop ideas that may become patents. Under her leadership\, the business unit increased invention disclosures by 10%. \nToday\, she works as a Research & Development Project Manager\, teaching a new team how to better innovate. Her business\, Strawberry Innovation\, provides coaching\, presentations\, and workshops. Outside of work\, she enjoys hiking\, writing\, and traveling. Her grand goal is to hike in every state in the nation with 60% of the states hiked so far. \nLearn more about Strickland on her company website at StrawberryInnovation.org \nMontgomery B. Goforth has more than 40 years of experience as both Engineer and Manager in a variety of highly technical space and defense-related efforts.  After working for a small defense contractor specializing in anti-submarine warfare\, he joined NASA’s Johnson Space Center in 1990.  He has held leadership positions in multiple JSC Directorates and Program Offices. In his current role as Assistant Director of the JSC Engineering Directorate\, he has established a framework to better focus Engineering’s efforts towards Human Spaceflight technology and systems development consistent with JSC and Agency goals for exploration. He has used this framework to guide Engineering’s internal investments and external partnerships supporting Lunar and Mars Exploration. Mr. Goforth was born in East Texas\, raised in Southern California and Arizona\, and graduated from Rice University (BSME 1982\, MSME 1987). \nAbout NASA Tech Talks \nIn these presentations\, occurring the fourth Thursdays of the month\, Mr. Montgomery Goforth and other aerospace subject matter experts will discuss the technology development challenges faced by NASA’s Johnson Space Center and the surrounding Aerospace community in our ongoing efforts as the hub of human spaceflight. Presentations will focus on the ways in which these challenges\, and the associated opportunities\, can be leveraged by Houston’s innovation community. We will continue to identify potential space/terrestrial technologies of interest to Human Spaceflight.  Past NASA Tech Talks have included topics such as: \n\nFrom Space to Startup: Leveraging NASA Technology and Innovation to Propel Your Growing Enterprise\nDisruptive Filter Technology for Spacecraft Water Treatment:  The New Promise of Graphene\nLunar dust capture using novel multiplexed inertial filter\nLunar Passive Fuel Cell Technologies:\nMicrobes in Space

SUMMARY:Buying and Selling Businesses
DESCRIPTION:Join Lenny Saizan\, Business Broker and Managing Director of Urban Capital Network\, for an informative presentation on selling and buying businesses. \nThe process of selling and buying a business includes many steps and involves collaboration and coordination of professionals across various disciplines. Quite often\, sellers and buyers in the market are going through the process for the very first time. \nBusiness owners typically have most of their wealth tied to their business; therefore\, it is important that they maximize the value of the business and properly plan their exit strategy. For buyers\, entrepreneurship through business acquisition is a less risky path to business ownership that increases the probability of success and generates positive cash flow on day one. Business acquisition is also a good strategy for business owners to grow their existing business. Lenny Saizan will discuss the process of selling and buying a business\, highlight challenges and mistakes to avoid\, and present the benefits of working with an intermediary. If you are a business owner\, prospective buyer\, or small business service provider\, this event will be beneficial to you. \nDuring the session\, you can expect discussion on the following: \n\nMarket overview\,\nWhen to prepare to sell or buy\,\nWhat makes a company valuable\,\nHow companies are valued\,\nOverview on how to recast financial statements\,\nThe sales process\,\nThe deal team\,\nTaxes and insurance considerations.\n\nPresenter:\nLenny Saizan is the co-founder and Managing Director of Urban Capital Network (UCN)\, an investment firm dedicated to democratizing premium investment opportunities for a wider range of investors. In addition\, he owns and operates Murphy Business Brokerage – Southwest Houston\, where he assists business owners with exit planning\, value maximization\, and the sale of their businesses. He also supports buyers interested in business acquisitions or franchises. \nBefore establishing UCN and his business brokerage\, Lenny worked for 10 years as an Electrical Engineer\, specializing in automation\, controls\, and systems integration. He then transitioned to the oil and gas industry\, where he spent another decade leading teams in financial and operational controls\, as well as audit. \nLenny holds a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Louisiana State University and an MBA from Tulane University. He is a Certified Mergers & Acquisition Professional\, a Six Sigma Green Belt\, and a Project Management Professional. In 2023\, he was honored as an Outstanding Diversity Champion by the Houston Business Journal.

SUMMARY:Ion Family STEAM Day: Let's build a ball launcher!
DESCRIPTION:Join STEAM on Demand\, Persona AI\, and the Ion for a hands-on\, family-friendly STEAM workshop. Newton’s Second Law of Motion\, Force = ma\, explains how force\, mass\, and acceleration interact. In this lesson\, students will explore Newton’s ideas by building and testing a ball launcher. \nThrough hands-on construction led by the STEAM on Demand platform\, they’ll see how different forces affect movement and momentum. By the end\, they’ll understand how acceleration changes based on an object’s mass and the force applied to it. \nSpecial Guest Partner: \nPersona AI \nPersona AI’s vision is to be the labor platform for skilled industrial work. Whether the worksite is a shipyard\, energy infrastructure\, construction site\, or another dynamic environment\, our humanoids will do the heavy industry 3D jobs — dull\, dirty\, and dangerous — so that humans don’t have to. \nPersona AI’s engineers and team will be leading this workshop\, lending their expertise in engineering and robotics. This is the perfect chance for your student to meet people working to create Humanoids at Work! \nThis event will be tailored for 7-14-year-olds and their families for a fun STEAM experience! We look forward to building and learning with you!
