Simon Johnson Appointed as Senior Business Development VP at MedAcuity

MedAcuity has recruited Simon Johnson as senior vice president of business development. Johnson has a proven record of success in sales leadership, combined with consulting services expertise with an emphasis on client-focused practices. 

Johnson has extensive experience working directly with client organizations in biotech, healthcare technology, financial services, retail and manufacturing. He has held leadership consulting services and sales roles in North America, Latin America, and EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa). 
 
Johnson joins MedAcuity most recently from digital consultancy Mobiquity Inc., where he built the client partner team and managed strategic clients. Prior to that, he was the senior vice president of client services at GreenPages Technologies Inc., responsible for driving the company’s services revenue growth leading to its acquisition by Abry Partners in December 2020.

MedAcuity, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, is committed to bringing a quality mindset to every client project to ensure it achieves the highest standards in the delivery of its services and capabilities. As senior vice president of business development, Johnson will play a vital role in shaping and supporting MedAcuity’s business strategy focused on exceeding the needs of clients developing software-intensive medical devices and complex systems of the highest quality, safety and reliability.
 
MedAcuity also welcomed Brian Kaputa to its management team earlier this year as director of its Project Management Office, which aims to improve execution throughout a project’s lifecycle. It is also continuing to build out a robust client success team to work proactively in partnership with clients to anticipate their challenges or questions and provide solutions and answers.
 
Prior to joining MedAcuity, Kaputa held both project and program management roles focused primarily on U.S. Food and Drug Administration-regulated entities with Sensitech, a cold chain and logistics performance solutions company. Before his time with Sensitech, he was senior project manager for clinical systems at Parexel. Earlier, Kaputa was a program manager for Medtronic with a focus on software validation, and packaging and labeling systems for the cardiovascular division.
 
“We are proud to continue growing our management team with the additions of Simon, Brian and other strategic hires who share our passion for delivering high-quality, high-value services to accelerate the development of software solutions for critical applications for all classes of medical devices and regulated robotics,” said Dennis Fuccione, president and co-founder of MedAcuity. “We are confident Simon’s background will advance our business development efforts and Brian’s cross-industry success applying lean and process improvement principles into systems development and validation will benefit MedAcuity clients significantly.”
