Eugene Scott Crist is a Houston-based technology and finance executive currently serving as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Texas Ventures Acquisition IV Corp. (NASDAQ: TVIV), a special purpose acquisition company, a role he has held since October 2025. The company is headquartered at 5090 Richmond Avenue, Suite 319, Houston, Texas 77056. In addition to his SPAC leadership, Crist serves as Chief Executive Officer of Osperity Inc., a digital visual monitoring and industrial IoT company, and holds a board seat at Arbe Robotics Ltd. (NASDAQ: ARBE), an Israeli automotive radar technology company. His professional network within the Texas Ventures ecosystem includes Christopher Efird, CEO and Chairman of NEXT Renewable Fuels, and R. Greg Smith, who serves as Chief Financial Officer and Director of Texas Ventures Acquisition IV Corp.
Crist's career has spanned multiple technology-intensive sectors, with declared specialties in communications, fintech software, specialty and capital market finance, automotive technology, biotech, and 5G-LTE. His executive track record reflects deep involvement in growth-stage and public technology companies, particularly those bridging industrial software, sensor technology, and capital markets. His board service at Arbe Robotics, disclosed in the company's 20-F filing in March 2024, underscores his engagement with advanced automotive and semiconductor ventures, while his leadership at Osperity highlights his focus on AI-driven visual monitoring solutions for industrial applications.
Educationally, Crist earned a B.S. from North Carolina State University and an M.B.A. from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University, with additional academic ties to Robert Gordon University (now Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen, Scotland). He is approximately 60 years old. His combination of engineering-focused undergraduate training, elite business school credentials, and decades of operating experience across communications, fintech, and deep-tech sectors positions him as a seasoned sponsor-leader for the Texas Ventures Acquisition IV SPAC platform, which targets high-growth technology businesses suitable for public market entry.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001032186 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 40 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 26 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
