LA Tech Combines Innovation and University Advancement Units, Appoints Norris as SVP and CEO

Louisiana Tech President Jim Henderson is consolidating two of the university's key external functions, University Advancement and Innovation, under the new role of Senior Vice President and CEO of Innovation and Advancement at the Louisiana Tech Foundation. Dr. Davey Norris will assume this key role, providing leadership in expanding and consolidating the innovation, public-private partnerships, philanthropy and economic development that support the university.

“Working with the Louisiana Tech Foundation Board of Trustees and Executive Committee over the past six months has enhanced this opportunity to leverage existing resources and talent. Combining these organizations will provide significant benefits to the entire university community, our business partners, the city of Ruston and the local economy,” said President Jim Henderson. “Davey is a committed leader who has proven his ability to attract partners that will continue to advance the mission of Louisiana Tech.”

For more than a decade, Norris has served as Louisiana Tech's Chief Innovation Officer, leading the university's innovation enterprise. During his tenure, the university opened Tech Pointe I and Tech Pointe II, buildings that house 18 tenant companies that regularly leverage student and faculty resources to drive better business outcomes.

“Our university is poised to build on the success of our Innovation Enterprise and the impact of our outstanding driving team,” Norris said. “Combining these operations will not only broaden the reach of our philanthropic efforts, but will also enable us to strengthen partnerships, expand experiential learning opportunities, foster new research collaborations, and pursue diverse business engagements that drive economic growth in our community and region.”

The Executive Vice President will lead these critical functions with the support of the University's Chief Development Officer and Chief Innovation Officer. Lisa Bradley, who has served as Interim Vice President for Advancement, will return to her role as Vice President for Foundation and Chief Financial Officer.

“I want to thank Lisa for her steady leadership over the past year and a half, and I know she will continue to play a key role in the success of our development efforts,” President Henderson added.

Norris' new role will be effective July 1.
