Volpara Solutions, a Wellington-based Healthcare Technology organization has announced the appointment of Katherine Singson as CEO. In her role, Katherine will be responsible for driving continued growth for Volpara’s breast cancer detection and patient tracking software.
Katherine is a veteran with more then 30+ years of experience in the industry. She has worked for start-ups as well as multinational organizations, which includes NeXT/Apple, Pixar and Microsoft. With such experience, Katherine brings both business-to-business as well as direct-to-consumer experience to this crucial new role. After being mentored by Steve Jobs at all three of his companies, she spent several years abroad including in Sydney, Australia. A highlight of this time overseas was working at Microsoft ANZ (Australia & New Zealand) where she partnered with Oprah Winfrey’s Ultimate Australian Adventure to showcase both Windows and Xbox in a deeply humanistic manner.

We look forward to Katherine positively impacting the healthcare industry and seeing how she’ll no doubt tap into the power and passion of women to obliterate advanced-stage breast cancer”.
“In these uncertain times, we aim to create a nimble, responsive and tastefully relentless approach to addressing this destructive disease,” says Katherine. “Since Covid-19, the idea of actively participating in one’s own self-care in partnership with leading-edge healthcare providers is stronger than ever,” she adds.
