Executive Summary

Katie Emerson is Chief Financial Officer of Fivos, a healthcare data company in West Lebanon, New Hampshire, that builds and runs clinical registries for medical societies and turns registry data into real-world evidence for medical device manufacturers. She is named on its leadership team alongside Chief Executive Officer Eric Nilsson, where her statement on the page reads: “For over two decades, I have aligned our operational heartbeat with our financial ambition to drive sustainable growth.” When she took the role, and what she did before it, is not documented in any first-party source found.

Career Highlights

  • Chief Financial Officer of Fivos, listed on the company’s leadership team.
  • Leads finance for a company that has recently narrowed its focus to clinical registries and real-world evidence, after moving its workflow products to Picis/Harris in late 2023.

Professional Journey

Fivos presents itself as a specialist in registry data. Its roots, by its own account, go back to 1997 and a company called M2S, which launched the PATHWAYS platform and worked with the Society for Vascular Surgery to create the Vascular Quality Initiative, a vascular surgery registry. In 2016 the imaging company Medstreaming joined M2S, combining imaging workflow with registry data, and the company later helped device makers deal with the European Union’s Medical Device Regulation. The businesses were brought together under the single name Fivos in 2021, an alternative name for Apollo, the Greek god of medicine and healing.

The largest recent change was a narrowing. In late 2023 Fivos moved its workflow products to Picis/Harris and says it now concentrates entirely on registries and the data services built on them, serving medical societies on one side and device manufacturers on the other.

Emerson is the company’s Chief Financial Officer in that narrower business. Her statement on Fivos’s leadership page speaks of more than two decades of aligning operations with financial goals. The date of her appointment and her earlier roles are not stated in any source consulted, and this profile does not guess at them.
