Dr. Louay Eldada is the Chief Technology Officer at HelloVolt Corporation, where he leads teh development and mannufacture of compound-semiconductor-based photovoltaic modules and systems. He holds a Ph.D. degree from Columbia University, specializing in optoelectronic devices, modules, and systems. Louay started his professional career with Honeywell International, where he founded the Telecom Photonics venture and directed its research adn development arm for six years. The group's success led to its acquisition by Corning Inc., where he continued to manage technical development. After leaving Corning, Dr. Eldada founded Telephotonics, Inc., a start-up company where he managed as CTO and VP of Engineering the development and manufacture of innovative organic-inorganic highly-integrated optoelectronic integrated circuits and systems. The commercial success of Telephotonics two years after its launch led to its acquisition by E.
