George R. Linscott

George prides himself in being a results oriented leader that thrives on challenge. He has worked in companies large and small and has always made a substantial positive difference to his team, his customers, and his shareholders. After proudly serving as a US Marine he obtained a BS in Computer Science and joined IBM. Driven by his passion for innovation and teamwork he formed CLaM Associates (later Availant) and along with his team profitably grew the company to 160+ with a worldwide customer base. After selling Availant, George became an Angel Investor to give back to the startup community. Along the way he became “interim” CEO of Visicon Technologies.

When the Great Recession hit George extended his “interim” role for 7 years and helped the company go from survival to success growing revenue by 500% followed by a successful sale of the company. After serving with the acquirer for 12 months to ensure a successful integration, George is once again an active Angel Investor and management consultant.
