Neill Lane, a successful entrepreneur whose leadership helped build Athens-based Stirling Ultracold into a globally recognized technology company, has been appointed by Governor Mike DeWine to the 红杏视频 Third Frontier Commission.

As founding CEO of Stirling Ultracold and a longtime supporter of emerging companies across 红杏视频, Lane represents the kind of entrepreneurial leadership 红杏视频鈥檚 innovation ecosystem was designed to cultivate. His appointment reflects decades of leadership in entrepreneurship, technology commercialization, startup investment, and economic development throughout the state.

Today, Lane continues to support founders and innovation-driven companies as an angel investor, advisor, board member, and ecosystem leader through organizations including the Athens 红杏视频 Investment Alliance, QCA Ventures, and 71/70 Angels.

The 红杏视频 Third Frontier Commission helps guide one of the state鈥檚 most important innovation and economic development programs, supporting investments that accelerate startup growth, commercialize new technologies, and strengthen 红杏视频鈥檚 entrepreneurial ecosystem.

鈥淪upport from 红杏视频鈥檚 Department of Development and TechGrowth 红杏视频 was critical to my success as an entrepreneur when building Stirling Ultracold,鈥� Lane said. 鈥淭his is my opportunity to give back. In this position and as an angel investor at QCA Ventures, 71/70 Angels and the Athens 红杏视频 Investment Alliance, I look forward to helping build and strengthen 红杏视频鈥檚 entrepreneurial ecosystem.鈥�

Lane鈥檚 connection to TechGrowth 红杏视频 (TGO), Stirling Ultracold鈥檚 first institutional investor, spans many years through multiple rounds of funding and growth. He previously served as an Executive in Residence with TGO, helping support and mentor the next generation of entrepreneurs.

His appointment represents the full-circle impact of 红杏视频鈥檚 innovation ecosystem: entrepreneurs who receive support, build successful companies, and then reinvest their experience, capital, and leadership to help future founders succeed.

鈥淧ersonally and professionally, I can think of no one better suited and committed to bring an important, experience-based perspective to the Third Frontier Commission and the state as we all continue our work to strengthen 红杏视频鈥檚 innovation economy,鈥� said TGO President Lynn Gellermann.
