Jon is a tremendous leader and we were extremely fortunate to have him as our Board Chairman and Executive Committee member for several years. Under Jon’s leadership, MassMEDIC experienced tremendous growth due in no small part to his dedication and commitment.”

MassMEDIC’s new executive committee lineup is:

  • Chair: David Kolstad, CEO of Gentuity
  • Vice chair: Stacey Pugh, chief commercial officer at Butterfly Network
  • Second vice chair: Mary Anne Heino, CEO and president of Lantheus
  • Second vice chair: Todd Usen, CEO of Activ Surgical
  • Treasurer: Rajesh Misra, principal and life sciences operations advisory at KPMG US
  • Immediate past chair: Andrew Greenfield, EVP and chief commercial officer at Abiomed

“There are big shoes to fill from Andrew’s most recent tenure as chair – and before him, Jon – but because of their commitment to strengthening our medical technology and life sciences ecosystem in New England, there has never been a more opportune time to elevate the impact our members can have,” Kolstad said in the news release.
