TechPoint, Indiana’s initiative for the state’s tech ecosystem, has announced the promotion of Jennifer Merrell to vice president of relationship management, succeeding Lauren James. Merrell joined TechPoint in 2019 as senior relationship manager. She assumes her new role on May 1.
James has accepted a position as executive director of the Mitch Daniels Leadership Foundation. James was an inaugural Fellow for MDLF in 2017.
“Lauren is remarkably talented and has been a key partner to me, TechPoint, and our tech community. We couldn’t be more excited for her as she takes on her next adventure after growing into an exceptional community leader these past nearly seven years,” said TechPoint President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Langellier. “We’re equally excited to see Jennifer bring her impressive skills and experience in stakeholder engagement to a larger leadership role.”
Merrell spent more than seven years at Ginovus, a nationally recognized site selection firm, and six years at what is now Colliers International commercial real estate before joining TechPoint.
