David Glass is the CEO and co-founder of LHP Inc., headquartered in Columbus, Indiana. David received degrees in electrical engineering and administrative engineering from Tri-State University while playing baseball. His love of the sport has never subsided. In 2001, David built an engineering services startup and technology integration company, LHP Engineering Solutions. The company offers engineering and integrated technology solutions that streamline engineering efforts for implementing complex embedded control applications. In 2008, David established a joint venture product- focused company, LHP Telematics. Now a joint venture with John Deere, they offer telematics and cloud-based data solutions to various transportation and heavy equipment companies throughout North America.
David has been a strong advocate for collegiate sports in Columbus for years, where he resides with his wife, MaryLynn. His love of baseball continued as his three sons played baseball into college. With the announcement of starting NAIA athletics at IUPUC, David was first in line to offer consultation, expertise, and financial support through LHP—his lead gift helped secure additional gifts. IUPUC Athletics is now a reality in Columbus.
