How you can engage with us.
How did we get started?
Our founder and CEO, Dr. Pam Henderson started as a Professor at Carnegie Mellon University. A dual-career opportunity brought her family to the Pacific Northwest, where as a professor at Washington State University, the National Lab called on her for assistance. She worked with them on commercializing early stage technologies and found that she could apply the same methods to help larger organizations, thus NewEdge was born.
20+ years later and we are still using the base-line principles the company was founded on.
Who is the NewEdge team?
We have a team of 20 divergent thinkers with expertise in industries across our client base and backgrounds in business, the sciences, and creative fields. Each has deep training in Opportunity Thinking® as well as how to facilitate alignment and the right outcomes for our clients.
