CLINTON, N.Y. — Indium Corporation has a new CEO as former leader Greg Evans transitions to a role as executive chair of the board of directors, the company announced. Ross Berntson, who already served as Indium’s president and COO, is now also the firm’s CEO. In his dual role, Berntson is responsible for the overall strategic direction and key decision making that impacts the company’s future. Berntson joined Indium in 1996 and has served in leadership positions in product management, market development, and technical support. During his tenure as president/COO, the company saw significant advances in all functions and global activities. “Ross has promoted creativity, curiosity, and innovation across all areas of our company,” Libby Macartney Mitchell, company owner and president of the Indium Corporation & Macartney Family Foundation, said in a news release. “Under his leadership, Indium Corporation has advanced in its organizational structure and in operational capabilities that are core to our growth, stability, and strength.” In his new role as executive chair, Evans provides guidance to Indium with duties including facilitating communication between the board and executive management and providing guidance and support in the strategic and operational execution of company objectives. “During Greg’s tenure, Indium Corporation achieved significant growth by creating value for our customers through the delivery of innovative technical support and the development of yield- and productivity-enhancing products,” Mitchell said. “Most importantly, Greg has led and supported our Indium Corporation culture, instilling the core values of respect, appreciation, and achievement.” Headquartered in Clinton, Indium is a materials refiner, smelter, manufacturer, and supplier to the global electronics, semiconductor, thin-film, and thermal-management industries.
