Wil McCarthy

Teaches at DaVinci Institute

Wil McCarthy is a seasoned inventor with 29 issued patents in seven countries. His work has raised over $30M in investment. A bestselling and award-winning author, Wil has written 10 books, as well as hundreds of articles for major publications including Nature, WIRED, GQ, Discover, Popular Mechanics, IEEE Spectrum, and the Journal of Applied Polymer Science. He has also consulted for multiple branches of the U.S. and U.K. governments.

Previously a flight controller for Lockheed Martin Space Launch Systems, and later an engineering manager for Omnitech Robotics, Mr. McCarthy has been Chief Technology Officer of four different tech companies and CEO of two. In broad demand as a public speaker, he is an expert at technology strategy, intellectual property strategy, the leadership of R&D teams, and the development of new products from “cocktail napkin to mass production”. Today he consults for multiple companies — from early-stage startups to mature, industry-leading manufacturers — that need the services of a knowledgeable CTO, but not as a full-time permanent position.
