Leadership Transition Marks New Chapter of Continued Growth and Impact for the Columbus, Ohio-Based Firm

UpRys, a strategic consulting and advisory firm dedicated to elevating nonprofits, small businesses and for-profit organizations through its people, process, and technology expertise, is proud to announce the appointment of Anthony McIntosh as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective immediately. McIntosh, who previously served as President & Chief Operating Officer, steps into the CEO role as the company enters its next phase of growth and impact.
Since its founding in 2020, UpRys has evolved from a small startup to a trusted partner, driving transformational change for its clients. McIntosh has been instrumental in that journey—shaping strategy, scaling operations, and delivering innovative solutions that strengthen mission-driven organizations across the 20 states that we serve. As CEO, he will continue to lead UpRys with a focus on deepening its impact and accelerating growth.
“Anthony’s leadership has been pivotal in turning UpRys from vision to reality,” said Keith Stevens, Founder and Chairman of UpRys. “I first met Anthony when I engaged him to provide strategic planning support to the Alvis board, and it was immediately clear he brought immense value, insight, and leadership. From day one at UpRys, he’s delivered unwavering commitment to our staff, clients, and community partners with a deep alignment with our mission. His elevation to CEO is a recognition of those contributions and a powerful step forward as we continue expanding our impact in the communities we serve.”
In response to his new role, McIntosh said, “I’m grateful for the opportunity and appreciate the trust Keith and the team have placed in me. I look forward to supporting our community and advancing the mission of elevating organizations.”
