WALTHAM, Mass.: #3Dimaging--GelSight, a pioneer in tactile intelligence technology, today announced that it has appointed Troy Lambeth to its Board of Directors. Troy’s background in aviation and experience building maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) and integrated support businesses will help GelSight expand its reach in key markets to improve surface quality control processes with its tactile sensing technology.
Troy is an industry veteran with over 30 years of international aviation and finance experience. He most recently served as the CEO of the Sanad Group, leading the integration of the group’s global leasing and MRO businesses, which have grown to more than a billion dollars in assets and related annual revenues. He was also the CEO of Sanad Capital from its launch in 2009 until 2022. Under his leadership, the company expanded to over a billion dollars in leased assets globally with customers in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America. Troy has held various executive, board, and senior management roles at Mubadala, Sanad, Yas Holdings, AMMROC, Horizon Flight Training Academy, GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS), Northwest Airlines, Mesa Airlines, De-Ice, and other private equity companies and funds.
"GelSight’s tactile sensing platform offers a unique solution for aerospace manufacturing and MRO surface analysis that can help OEMs save time, materials, and money," said Troy Lambeth. "While several of the top aerospace OEMs already use GelSight, I look forward to working alongside the team to further address the industry’s need for accurate, repeatable, high-resolution surface inspection, and making tactile sensing technology a new standard in modern aviation MRO."
Troy began his career as an aviation officer and pilot in the U.S. Army and later served as a commercial pilot at Northwest Airlines. Working closely with aerospace industry OEMs, maintenance service providers, financial institutions and investors, he has led the development and delivery of large-scale asset management, trading, MRO, and financing programs in support of both commercial and military aviation operations globally.
